“We placed a huge focus on making better decisions in transition
and rebounding this week,” said LC Head Coach Victoria Crawford.
“There was a period when the momentum shifted and Roosevelt took
full advantage of our lack of focus and execution, but, overall,
I was impress with the intensity that we played with,” she
added.
