WHAT COACH KEVIN KENNEDY SAID
"I'm obviously disappointed with the loss, as I thought we competed well in most facets of the game today. We just weren't clean enough in the final third and LIU punished us for our mistakes in the back. Now we need to focus on staying healthy and preparing for our match on Saturday and the conference tournament."
