COACH CURRIER'S QUOTE
  • It was a classic A-10 battle. Every time the A-10 teams are so different. You have to adapt and adjust. I thought we came out and didn't read what they were doing very well. They high-pressed us, we made some mistakes, and it resulted in us being down a goal. But I thought we did a really good job of fighting back and getting back on top before the half. Then in the second half, outside the one chance they had on goal, we had the run of play. We had several chances and it felt like it was a matter of time. It was unfortunate we didn't finish it off in regulation, but it was a great goal by Jonas. I thought it was a great ending for us.

UP NEXT
  • The Flyers will head back out on the road to take on George Washington Saturday at 2 p.m. in Washington, D.C. ­
