One night it’s Hannah, the next Tessa. Tonight it was Taylor Hoskins. She played a fantastic game tonight and snuck in some kills that were momentum-keepers and killers. 

“After dropping the first set, we settled in and played solid,” he added. “We did a good job of taking what they gave us and forcing them out-of-system. I could go on-and-on. There was a lot to be excited about tonight.”
