From the Coaches' Box/Michael Coll, Head Women's Soccer Coach
On The Game
  • "We started off in awesome fashion with a tremendous goal from Souply, finishing a rebound from a big time save by the UNCW goalkeeper. Their goalkeeper kept them in the game in the next 10 minutes with amazing saves, including two more of our excellent attacks."
Words of Wisdom
  • "We told the team to keep their heads held high because we played well tonight and we were much more dangerous around goal than we were in the first three games of the season."
Taking it One Step At a Time
  • "Overall this match was a significant performance improvement for the team and I think tonight's game made it crystal clear what we need to do to get better as the season continues."
