Frazier scored 19 points in the game while pulling down nine rebounds. Post player Priscilla Raven added 10 points and nine rebounds.

"It seems like every year we struggle at the beginning and the girls figure it out through playing these games," Perez said. "The more games we get under our belt, the more improved we get."

Perez used the analogy of practices being class time, games being quizzes and then the final being the AIHEC Tournament.

"We try to really have them stay focused on AIHEC," Perez said. "When that comes around, we should be ready to put our best foot forward."
