QUOTING COACH JOHNSON

Overall thoughts on the match…

"I am really proud of the team. We had a really clean offense tonight, and it's always great to get a three-set win, especially against a team (Drake) that I thought battled really hard. Drake threw a 5-1 at us, a 6-2 at us and had to change personnel to give us different looks.
