“Today was a great opportunity for our team to play against outside competition early in this preseason,” said coach Hideki Nakada, “and I’m really happy with what I got to see.
“We created numerous quality opportunities and were able to put away a few, while limiting their chances. Again, it’s still early and we have much work to do, but this was a very solid showing for this new group and I’m excited for them to continue to work toward our season opener on August 15th against Gonzaga.”
That’ll do it!
