Coach from Head Coach Andy Smyth
"It was very dissapointing to tie the game after being up by two. They were a very strong team that put a lot of pressure on us- we were able to withstand that pressure we just couldn't find that third goal we needed. Our finishing needs to be more clinical. Our performance generally was pretty good but we're disappointed to lose a game we were leading by 2-0."
