Quotable
Towson head coach Lisa Costello on Towson's start and weekend performance.
"It's been a total team effort through our first three weeks to the season. They have been focused and doing many of the little things right, which has led to some good results. It's been nice to have everybody contributing something important to our success whether it's taking an extra base, moving a runner, or being in the right position defensively. The good thing is everybody is supporting each other."
