Quotables from Coach Mimi Burke
"What a great way to begin our fall season, and it couldn't have been at a better place. I'm super proud of the fight each one of our ladies gave for Eagle Nation today. Although we will take the remainder of the day to celebrate the victory, we are ready to get back to work and get prepared to head to Furman. GATA."
