I’m delighted for the win and for the way the group showed composure throughout the game. The way the team played pre-season and started district means that we have the potential to achieve big things. We focus each game at a time, but we do have our season goals, which include winning district and surpassing second round in playoffs. If we keep working hard and we keep our focus, I believe we can achieve both,” Rodriguez said.
