COACH'S CORNER
"Even though we struggled to be effective in the offensive end, this game showed massive improvements from our scrimmage last week.

"Getting the girls accustomed to new positions and different faces on the field is a process that takes time.  Overall, this was a good step in the right direction." - Coach Hannah Ogden
 
UP NEXT
The Highlanders return to Burke Field tomorrow to host the visiting Lakers of SUNY Oswego at 1:00 p.m.  Last season the Lakers scored two second-half goals to defeat the Highlanders in the season-opener, 2-1.
