Adversity is a test of character more than anything. It's easy to be the person you aspire to be when you're winning. Trying to do that when you're not at the top is much more honorable.
A lot of tears. The feelings and emotions are endless. There's anger, there's frustration, there's a ton of sadness. But there was also opportunity because I see myself not just as a coach, but as a leader.
We closed ranks, took responsibility and saluted the women who beat us. Winning isn't always about the final score; sometimes it's how you react to that result.
This is what life is; the reality of life. You don't stand on top of the podium every single time. We lost to a better team.
