// COACH TOTH ON THE BEARCATS
"A very nice way to finish out the regular season today. We knew UCONN would compete well like they always do and that we needed to be ready for another tough match today. We have had so many close calls of late that have not gone our way and Kat and I are really pleased how the girls have not let it get them down. We wanted to get a conference win before heading to Orlando tomorrow. Our second season begins on Wednesday. It's one loss and you are done time. Every single team in our league presents a challenge. We'll learn our fate tomorrow and be ready for whoever we face on Wednesday."
// UP NEXT
The Bearcats will head south to Lake Nona, Florida for the American Athletic Conference Championships. The opening round will be played on April, 17.
