"I want to thank all the fans for coming out," Price said. "Their support was much appreciated."
Price continued, "I am really proud of the ladies. It was a tough way to end the season. We had our chances but it wasn't meant to be. We had a good year and I want to thank the seniors for their leadership and dedication. I also want to thank Hank Furry for all he does for our program."
