QUOTABLE
Ryan Hofer, TWU Head Coach
"Really proud of the team, and not just for one night, but to be able to come out and sustain pressure over an entire weekend to learn how to make adjustments to learn to play with a few different lineups that we had out there. Tana did a really nice job distributing the ball, and our team was super efficient tonight. We really wanted to make Winnipeg play the ball a little bit better from the baseline, and we did that. And we sustained some good defence and some really nice offence."
