Coach Speak
"For our first outing, I thought it was good," Minatta said. "We got off to a shaky start but were able to pick it up. We got the goal and were able to work the ball around and create some good chances. I thought Courtney Powell and Kassi Ginther came in and were really effective going at the goal. Coming out of the half we were slow and gave up the goal early. After that we had good possession and had some good attacks. We out-shot them, but at the end of the day, you've got to be able to put those away.
