QUOTES:
Dallas Trinity Head Coach Pauline MacDonald:
On tonight’s loss…“I think conceding early in the game as we did, through an error that we made ourselves, rocked us psychologically. We never really regained confidence from that in the first half and they were potentially the better team, creating chances. I can’t fault our team’s effort, character, and the resilience that they showed in the second half to get themselves back in the game and then try to go win the game.”
