WORDS FROM THE WARHAWKS

"Unfortunately it wasn't the result we wanted or planned for," said head coach Matthew Thorne. "Credit to West Florida who took their chances very well and is one of the best sides in the nation. I am very thankful for my coaching staff which is one of the best in the nation, and I am also thankful for my supportive wife Ashley, as we have many long trips away from my family. I am so thankful to my entire squad for the effort they put in this year. I'm especially grateful for all 10 seniors who lay the foundation for AUM men's soccer and us on the map nationally over the years...thank you! I am excited to see what this team can achieve in the coming years. UP THE WARHAWKS!"
