CARLIN'S COURSE OF THOUGHT
"I'm disappointed in the lack of energy and discipline we had today. We should play better, regardless of the score, and we can't take our foot off the gas when we're in the driver's seat. That's the lesson that should be learned from this afternoon."
UPCOMING
The Spartans will close out the tournament with matches against Jacksonville and UNCW.
