QUOTABLES
Head Coach Amber McCray
"UTEP dominated us in every facet of the game tonight and it showed in the scores. We knew it would be a tough challenge to stop a team with solid attackers in every position and we unfortunately did not take the necessary steps to minimize their balance. As with any loss, even the hard ones like this, we will learn from it to rebound quickly so we can give ourselves the best chance to go compete Sunday."
