QUOTES
Head Coach/General Manager Chris Petrucelli
On the match...
"It was sort of a 90-minute battle for possession and to try to create chances. I don't know that there were a ton of chances either way. That's a good team that's tough to play against. I thought that we battled hard."
Forward Chioma Ubogagu
On the draw...
"We knew it was going to be a challenge. We knew we had to compete. A draw is a good result. We obviously wanted a win but we'll take the draw and keep it moving for the next half of the season."
Defender Hannah Davison
On the priority for the team during its six-week Winter Break...
"I think just to mentally reset. We've done good building ourselves back up after that losing/tie streak and we came back and fought hard to get some wins and ties going into the break. I think just mentally reset, come back in, have a few weeks to prepare, and just keep on going. It's a long season and we're looking to take that top spot."
