COACH'S CORNER
"Geneseo came out and pressured us high and we struggled to collect the ball and deal with it.
We had a few good chances, but giving up a goal less than 2 minutes was a tough pill to swallow, on a relatively routine play that we just made a mistake on.  There were moments when we had a lot of young guys on the field today, so it was definitely a learning experience.  Steven Anderson got his first minutes of the season, and Dan Myers logged some good minutes in the midfield for us.  Also – Darcy Mitchell did well with his first start of his career.  We still need to figure out how to better create chances and be sharper in transition.
It will come though.  We now need to get ready for our first E8 game this weekend at Elmira.  Now it really matters." -- Head Coach Matthew Webb.
