COACHES CORNER
"Tonight was a tough loss to a good SUNY Delhi team. Unfortunately, we started the game slow and had several unforced errors that they were able to turn into goals. Jon Mayer, Nate Anderson, and
Lyle Warrior played well on offense, producing all nine goals and 4 assists between the three of them.
Tom Woodward and
Titus Snavely led the defense with a combined 6 caused turnovers and nine groundballs. We had moments that we played well but weren't able to put together a complete game. We will look to refocus and get back to the fundamentals before hosting St. John Fisher this Saturday. "—Head Coach,
Andrew Lundeen
