Coach Geandra Almeida's Thoughts:
"So proud of the team today. We've been talking about this and aren't going to give up. Our best may not be enough to move to the national championship, but we will not give up and keep trying."
"We had a slow start it was not great. But we fought and did the best we could today despite the delays. It is hard to restart. The three-hour delay got us a little because we had to get up early and then get refocused. We were dead last at one point and to get back to sixth is special."
