BEHIND THE WHISTLE
"It was a tough game, Greensboro is very good this year; big, strong, athletic and physical. We competed well in the first half, but we let them dictate the style of play in the second half. I think if we build on the things we did in the first 20 minutes of play tonight, we will be successful this season." --Head Coach Bryan Harvey
