“It was a great effort from everybody on our team and it’s evident that we are positioning ourselves to defend our home court tomorrow against Duke, and next weekend in the ACC Tournament,” said head coach Bond Shymansky. “Lynnette showed why we believe she is all-American material with a stellar performance now that she’s back at full strength. I was extremely pleased with Kele’s decision making and execution tonight. She was what made us dominant.”
