WHAT INTERIM HEAD COACH JOSH MOFFET SAID

"A disappointing result this evening, but for me what's most disappointing was the manner of the defeat. However, we'll learn from today, and grow to be better. There's no doubt in my mind that the team will pull together and come out with the GATA mentality to put on a positive performance on Sunday."
