Hearing from head Coach Phil Benne - "Our matches against NCAA Division l opponents Virginia Tech and Radford University created a great opportunity for the staff to see players in new roles against a high level of pressure and competition.  While we spent a lot of minutes defending, we were able to get a number of shots off and even a few corners through our counter-attack. Overall we learned  a great deal about our team individually and collectively as we look to our 2018 fall season."
