Invasion Head Coach MarQus Johnson said after the win, "We were missing three starters, but our guys hung in there and adjusted. We're still a work in progress, but I am proud of our team. We need to just keep working hard and staying together." The Invasion (7 - 0) play next at home on Friday, June 10th against the Fayetteville Crossover for their regular season finale at the Young Center in Cary.
