Words From Coach Soren Butler:
"In terms of score, this definitely was not our best showing. I think the team has made a lot of progress this year, but that progress has caused some of them to start setting expectations that aren't in line with how we want to perform. I am very happy with the way we're approaching matches; today was probably our best kneeling across the board and I look forward to carrying that into our next match."
