Quotes:

Head Coach Alen Marcina

(On the loss...)

"It's disappointing to concede on a set piece. It's something we take great pride

in, and unfortunately [there was] a man left free. And you know they executed on

that action. Defensively we were solid. Denied opportunities, and moving forward

we have to be a little better with the ball. Continue to look to create opportunities.

We'll learn from this, and use it as motivation to be ready for our next opponent."

Defender Connor Maloney

(On the team rebounding after losses this season...)

"I think all these guys in this locker room hate to lose. We're going to do

everything we can to not lose two in a row. So that means a good week of

practice, lots of focus lots of intensity, lots of video. So hopefully we can come

back from this, get a win and move on from it."
