COACH'S QUOTE
 "Credit to Siena for a gritty win. We had some great moments but at the end of the day we need to value possession of the ball and can't allow a third quarter to unfold like it did. We have a quick turn around to Saturday and I need to do a better job of setting my team up for success." - Head Coach Sarah Dalton Graddock
