WORDS FROM HEAD COACH AUSTIN ALBERS

"Our ladies played hard tonight. Defensively we disrupted their attack and gave ourselves to extend the match, but just did not capitalize when we needed to seize the opportunities." 

Albers also said, "the last one always stings, but we have a lot to be proud of. In a season that had plenty of speed bumps, this team stuck together and had a successful season. We found a way to grow the culture and relationships that alowed us to battle adversity. We grinded out 16 victories for just the fifth time in twenty seven seasons. A lot to be proud of, and a lot to build on."
