Carrier Dome/ Syracuse, N.Y.
Katie Rowan, Senior, Attack
On the game:
“I think we came out really strong in the beginning of the game. We scored three quick goals and we really wanted to continue that. In the second half, we really focused on playing defense and pressuring out and playing as a unit.”
On Louisville’s first BIG EAST game:
“I think we’ve played together for a while and they’re a new team and they’re in the BIG EAST, which is a strong conference. I think the experience definitely helps us.”
On Christina Dove’s upcoming milestone of scoring her 200th career point:
“It’s awesome. I think Dove definitely deserves everything, and she works hard everyday. As she said, I don’t think we really even pay attention to those things on the field.”
On her preparation for the game:
“We still had film that we watched. I think it’s the same preparation as other teams.”
Christina Dove, Junior, Midfield
On Louisville’s first BIG EAST game:
“This is their first game in the BIG EAST and I thought they played really well for being so young and inexperienced in the BIG EAST. I think they’re only going to get better as the year goes on.”
On her upcoming milestone of scoring her 200th career point:
“It’s a tremendous honor. But I try to play for the whole team so we can score as many goals as we can and outscore the other team. We try to get everyone involved.”
On preparing for the game:
“We come out and play our game every game. We look at what their tendencies are, but for the most part, we come out and make them play against us rather than react to them.”
Tee Ladouceur, Sophomore, Attack
On playing against a younger team:
“I guess it’s something you don’t really think about when you’re out there. Our team is so close and we really trust each other with the ball. It’s a competition, it’s just like any other game.”
