Head Coach Erik Ronning
"The first half was fantastic, and we were very unlucky not to score. We moved the ball well, played on the front foot, created a number of opportunities and were dangerous on sets. Conceding early in the second half was tough, but we continued to fight. Obviously, we are having difficulty scoring but we have been very unlucky and know it is coming.
If we had scored in the first half, and we came very close, I believe this game would have been different. I believe in this team. We will continue to work and improve. We now move on and prepare for Holy Cross.
