Coach Geandra Almeida’s Thoughts:
“Really pleased with the way we played as a team today. Yui didn’t have a good day for her, so when we drop her score and we feel like we had a pretty good score it is pretty awesome.”
“I am pretty excited to come back and give our best. I am sure Yui isn’t happy with the way she played and she will come back better tomorrow.”
“I have been talking with our team about focusing on three things: Trust, commit, and enjoy. If we can do those three things we can have a good result.”
