Head Coach Emma Eden on facing its second straight ranked opponent in the first of back-to-back games.
“We’re just really gonna have to dig deep and mentally we have to remember that anytime on the field, we can’t just go lax,” Eden says. “We have to give 110 percent, even if we’re tired. The other team, they’re working 110 percent too, so we gotta realize that we’re both going for it. So we gotta make sure that mentally we’re strong for it because it’s going to be very tough competition against Denver and Columbus again, Monday and Tuesday. So it’s just gonna be an uphill battle, but we’re ready for it.”
The game will start at 5:30 p.m.
