Coach's Corner
Head Coach Daniel Finn said, "I'll give it to Cardinal Stritch as they outplayed us today. We had our opportunities to get this one but we didn't capitalize. Both teams played their hearts out today and left everything on the court but we were not the most physical team and that hurt us in the end. We have to be better at being the most physical team and we will get there. This loss won't define us but we will learn from it and it will pay off down the road. We need to get healthy and get ready to grind. This season is a long one and we will continue to get better and be a tougher team as we move forward."
