Quotable-Towson Head Coach Katherine Vettori
"I'm very excited that we had a shutout. Richmond's frontline has scored a lot of goals this season, so defensively our backline did very well and Lindsey had a solid game."

"I think Jenna had a fantastic game taking players in one-on-one situations and getting herself in good positions in the box to finish. I'm happy for her and the team, we had so many players step up today with Moriah, Jacey and Christiana. Jenna has been working very hard and for her to get that reward is very exciting."
