"Against the Stingers, we had some strong offensive displays and I was pleased with the overall performance of the team. We dominated the entire game, outshot them 22-3 and gave up very few opportunities to Concordia."

The Martlets will have one week off before playing UQTR in the QSSF quarter-final round on March 14 at a location and time yet to be determined, pending the outcomes of other games this weekend.
