"Today we started way to slow," stated the BlueWave women's basketball David Lowery "but we battled hard and made a couple of really good runs. We just couldn't match their intensity and physicality consistently enough in the first half. We get a few days off in our schedule now to clean up some things and get ready for our next game at Daytona State.
