"It was probably was not in our best interest to mix up the line up a bit tonight," said Carthage head coach Steve Domin, "but fortunately, got some good minutes from a handful of players who don't see a lot of action. You have to give a ton of credit to Robert Morris for hustling when we felt the game was in check. We'll need to bounce back in a hurry to play regionally-ranked Wartburg on Friday."
The Red Men entertain Wartburg College (3-1) in a 7 p.m. contest on Friday, Sept. 16, also at Art Keller Field.
