Coaches' Corner:

“This was a good win for us. We had chances to put them away at times, and would have been nice to do so, but they have a good team and they kept making a run at us. At times, we got a little impatient, which aided their runs, but overall, it was a good win for us.” -- Coach Kevin Scheef.
