QUOTES
Head Coach Pauline MacDonald
On Lexi Missimo scoring in her debut…
“You could not have wrote that script any better, could you? I think that Lexi just has a lot of composure. She’s a young player, she’s been a top player in the college game, but her composure in the goal is second to none. I think she is gonna bring something really different. We worked really hard with her when the nine drops in to get beyond, and she did that this evening.”
Midfielder Lexi Missimo
On scoring in her professional debut…
“I think that was my first touch. I was really nervous before this game. I’ve been through the national team and college; I’ve been through all the high levels where the nerves get you, but this one meant more in a way. I’m just glad that I did my job.”
