"This definitely wasn't our best match and you could feel the sense that we were out of sync or out of rhythm from game one,” said Coach Betsy Davis. “We came back in game two, but we weren't able to sustain our lead, and game three looked about the same. We're still a great club, but we've got a lot of work yet to do with our mental aspect of the game."
