Postgame Quotes from Head Coach Marybeth Freeman
> "I think we had a good game plan in place and our team was very productive this week in practice, but sadly, we can do the things we need to do on the field but if we're not mentally engaged or mentally focused and adaptable to what's going on during the game, we're not going to get the results we want. Unfortunately, that was the case tonight."
> "We've seen some really good bits of hockey from our team throughout the year. Where we haven't been able to be successful is putting it together for 70 minutes. We've scored in the first 25 seconds of a game, we've scored down, we've scored up numbers and we've scored against top ranked teams. We've gone and done things that are really aggressive and other teams don't have the guts to do and gotten some benefits from it. I'm really proud of them and I think they know that, but the difference is putting it together for 70 minutes."
