Thoughts from Coach Briscoe
"We were slow finding our rhythm tonight but found ways to compete well.  We had moments of excellent effort of which we can be proud. Sydney had a standout performance that really kept us in the game but we are going to need to continue to fight for a more well rounded offense to find team success in our conference.  We are going to stay in the fight and get back to it tomorrow!"
