COACH’S COMMENTS
“… It was a disappointing night. We started off poorly and chased the ball around a lot in the first half. We weren’t able to possess like we wanted to. I don’t know if it was nerves or what. Second half was better and things were even with 16 min to go. JC took a cheap shot on Aiden and that resulted in a concussion that he is still dealing with. When you take the region player of the year out of the game, it has an impact. After that, we weren’t able to create a meaningful opportunities to score and JC benefitted from a lag defensively.”
