Thoughts from Coach Berry

"We had a long day in the hotel rooms waiting for our 8:00 pm game and then started 45 minutes late due to an earlier game.  After sleep walking through the first 15 minutes we finally woke up and began to play.  We had a very good third quarter and pulled away for the 35 point win.  In all we had nine players with points in the book."

 

Up Next

On Friday, the Firestorm will have their home opener against Embry-Riddle (AZ).  The women will play at 12:00 pm- the first of four games hosted at ACU that day.
