Coach's Corner
Head Coach Mat Dunn said, "It is great to start the season off with a win, and makes it even better when you're able get your entire bench minutes. To fly out to California yesterday and not have any practice time on artificial turf, really showed the character of our team. We outshot Menlo 29-4 and scored three goals but we could have had five or six more. We will now get ready to play the Masters on Saturday but I know the team will come out ready to go."

Keiser returns to action on Saturday when they battle The Master's College at 2:00 p.m. eastern time.
