Coach's Corner
Head Coach
Daniel Finn said, "This was a tough one to swallow today. We put ourselves in a position to win the points needed today but did not execute in the big moments. Credit to Embry-Riddle, they have a tough team and playing them in their house isn't easy. But at the end of the day, we have to get better in the big moments to win a match like this. We identified the areas we need to improve on and we will address those right away during this short break we have before our matches next week."
