COACH’S COMMENTS
“… The game went well Monday vs PCC. We moved the ball around well and found openings for shots. Defense did great with the shutout.”
“… Pikeville is a scary scenario for us. They have won 6 in a row and seem to be playing at their prime for this point in the season. We need to play disciplined soccer and be efficient with the ball. If we take care of our chances offensively, I like our chances.”
