COACH'S QUOTE
"We knew this game would be difficult coming off such an emotional win at Rhode Island," commented Head Coach Dennis Currier following the 3-1 victory. "This concluded a grueling stretch of A10 play with 3 games in eight days. The team did great, earned all nine points that were on the table. We will get some well needed rest and start preparing for our last conference game next weekend on the road."
