"I'm at a loss for words. It's so special. It's just an honor to play for my hometown... Nothing compares to how I felt in that moment," Leslie said after the win. "Our group throughout the whole season has been resilient. We have a no quit attitude and we've been battling the ups and downs all season. We believe in our group."
