FROM THE COACH
"After a nice win last night this wasn't what we were looking for today," said head coach Jennifer Wildes. "We weren't as sharp as we needed to be, we weren't aggressive and we made too many errors. We look forward to the week ahead to improve on some things and get ready to host the Eagle Classic and then the NACC Tournament."
 
UP NEXT
Benedictine, now 12-16 overall and 6-5 in the NACC, will host Elmhurst College on Friday, October 28 at 7:00 p.m. in the Rice Center.
