Coach's Quote

“I thought in the first half, we needed to be a lot better than we were,” LouCity coach Danny Cruz said. “We started the first 15 minutes really, really well … managed the territory, we were happy about that.

Thought the guys did a great job executing and ultimately to score goals in this tournament — obviously it’s one of the tiebreakers — so happy with the result.”
