The Spartans’ head coach Jim Roesch said to play back to back games and win again was something he was satisfied to see.
“Our shooting was a little off probably due to fatigue of playing Brussels,” he said. “We built up a little cushion before they came back. We could have a good season if the girls keep learning. We have a young team with not too much experience.”
Piasa Birds’ head coach Steve Wooley said his team showed character with its late-game comeback bid.
“I saw some really good things and some bad things,” Wooley said. “We battled back in the second half and put ourselves in position to win the game.”
