Head coach, Jed Jones, “This was a great road trip for us to come out with two wins. We made some mistakes on Saturday but survived. Today was a complete turnaround, as we created a lot more chances and didn’t make nearly as many mistakes. And the mistakes we did make today, we did a great job of recovering from those mistakes quickly so they did not hurt us.”
The next game for the Lady Pilots will be Friday, September 4th, at LSUS’, The Swamp, against the University of Texas-Brownsville at 5 p.m.
