Fontaine on Last Time
“Extremely proud of how the girls came out and played today. It is not easy to play a team four times in six months. Longwood is a really good team and they definitely brought it today but I just think our girls brought it to another level. We are excited to take this opportunity to go into a championship game on Sunday. We are ready for it, we are prepared for it, I’m just extremely proud of how we showed up today.”
