QUOTABLE – HEAD COACH CANDICE M. JACKSON
"It's about the bounce back for us... We've shown resilience throughout the season where if we didn't play at well at one point we'd come back and play well at another... I think it's a matter of focus... Going into Friday at Drexel, they're a disciplined team, they're a very patient team, they play with good composure... For us, we have to ramp up our defensive intensity, play at our pace, try to get up and down, score in transition as much as possible and be really consistent... That's going to be our word, consistency, and bringing that same level of intensity, that attitude, that we need for 40 full minutes."
