QUOTES

When asked what the Cougars need to improve upon heading into future matchups, head coach Amanda Butler responded: "Obviously, we've got great respect for everybody that we play against. Charleston Southern challenged us very differently than, I think, the way we'll be challenged in California. The constant, though, has to be us- our effort, the things that we're building into our identity, our connection and energy, and all the things that are controllable."
