Coach Curt Speerschneider : "We had a strong finish but we were  just overmatched today. There were a few opportunities we missed that could've changed the direction a bit, but we put it all out there and made them earn each match. Overall a good season for this group. We achieved a lot of the goals we set way back in October and they all really bought in to what it means to be a team player and a student-athlete. This team had a lot of heart and that'll carry over into next year for sure."
