NEAGLE'S NOTES:
"I am extremely proud of how we played today. Every player contributed in this final SSC matchup. Alex (Yeardley) played with a lot of emotion today after suffering a family loss earlier this week and I am happy she was able to perform as well as she did. It was great all-around team win, and we are looking for one more tomorrow on Senior Day."
