Thoughts from Coach Wedemeyer
"That was probably the most physical game of the season. We talked about the players giving more effort tonight and they certainly played harder. It has been a tough non-conference season, but hopefully it has prepared us for ASUN play."

Liberty will begin conference play next week as they embark on its first season in the ASUN Conference. The Lady Flames will travel to Kennesaw State on Friday, Sept. 21.
