Coach's Corner
"It was a great win to finish the regular season. It was a very professional performance, scoring two goals in the second half after being up 1-0 at halftime. I was pleased with our play all the way around, from Victor (Darub) to Ousmane (Fall) and Alejandro (Contrera) up front and everybody in between. I like how this team is coming together at the right time of the season, and we look forward to preparing for the CAC tournament (November 7-11 at GGC)," said Head Coach Steve DeCou.
