Pregame: "Keep your face always toward the Sun, and the shadows will fall in behind you." - Walt Whitman
Post game: "I thought we played very well for the majority of the game, but had a ten minute lapse that cost us. But I give the team credit. With several players out with injuries, they went on the road and earned a point. We would have loved to come away with three points, but we have to keep moving forward and get ready for another tough road contest Sunday." - Coach Micros
