Recently, we haven’t been ourselves and going to an environment like Washington, it’s difficult, of course,” said Pride coach Seb Hines. “But, we wanted to come here with loads of energy, loads of desire, commitment, and put a real good performance together for our fans, because they deserve it.”
“So I was really pleased with, the not just the goals, but their overall performance and their attitude leading into this game.””
