"Great team effort today. I thought our defense had one of their better days in sixes, and our goalie play late in the game was outstanding. Everyone had pretty consistent efforts throughout the game, and I am really proud of their effort in every area of the game. This is not an easy place to travel and play, especially on a school night, so I am proud of the whole team."
