HEAR FROM THE HAWKS COACH
Head Women's Soccer Coach Chad Miller on went right tonight:
"I love seeing so many girls joining in on the success of the team," Miller said. "I thought Central gave us some trouble in our possession, so being able to have success from different girls was great. Defensively, I felt we were strong, and that always helps when playing forward."
Miller on playing at home for the first time in 2023:
"I feel the win at home is a great kickoff for the girls," Miller said. "I saw a lot of families in the crowd, which is so huge for the players. A win is always a great feeling, but when you can get the first one in front of so many families and friends, it really makes it special."
UP NEXT:
The Hawks will return to the road for a duel with South Suburban College at 5 p.m. Friday in South Holland, Illinois.
