FROM THE SIDELINE

"It's always going to be a tough match when you lace up against Florida Tech," said head coach Julianne Herrity. "We learned a lot from this match and had some flashes of good moments that we can take away from tonight and build on. We will recover tomorrow and focus on being ready for Saturday. We also want to thank all of the faculty and staff for coming out tonight. We appreciate the work they do for our student-athletes and were happy to get the chance to honor them before the match!"
