On Team's Academic Success...
"I'm proud of this team for how hard they worked in the classroom this year. They are the epitome of what it means to be a student-athlete. Not only did they compete at a high level on the court but they were able to take care of their classwork in the same manner. In our program academics is a high priority and the work these women did is a direct reflection of that!"
