QUOTING COACH MURPHY
"Sometimes you have to separate the performance from the result. The team showed more fight and quality tonight than last game, so that must be highlighted as I review the performance. They hit us twice in transition after very good attacking sequences from us and that made the difference. Anyone who was there in person will tell you that this team gave everything they had on the pitch. The staff needs to lift this young team and get ready for Mercer. We start a four-game home stand this Saturday and look forward to playing in Statesboro in front of our fans."
 
NEXT UP
Georgia Southern will return home for the first time in over two weeks to host the Mercer Bears on Saturday evening. Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. from Eagle Field.
