BEHIND THE WHISTLE
"Slow start but a good fight from the guys to get a result. We took 45 minutes to show up before we started to show how we can play. At the end of the day, our goal for the game was a clean sheet and we achieved that. Proud of the group, but need a better response Saturday." --Head Coach Matt Cureton
