Quotable
"Erin is just scratching the surface. She's bought into what we're doing and taking advantage of her opportunities. I think she'd tell you it wasn't perfect this past weekend, but you have to admire how quickly she's adapted to a new environment. The sky's the limit for her." –
Coach Katie Woodruff on this week's performance
