"We can score the ball well.  Lots of offensive weapons.  Guards all around and all can shoot, and most can handle and drive.  We turned Jacksonville over a lot.  But in order to win we have to be better defensively. Our offense has fire power though. It's so fun to watch them battle and compete. They play hard."- Coach Nate said 

The Lady Cougars move to 7-16 (3-7) and are eyeing the regional tournament.  "We have a chance against anyone any given night."-Coach Nate said
