Postgame -

I met with Jude Flick, and we spoke for about a minute, Her key response is italicized below...

"We all played our role", later stating, "A big part of this game was rebounding."

Jude thought her team played decent, but the difference was rebounding and containing Alaina Dadzie.

The Blue Jays will take on Hughesville at 6:00pm EST.
