Coaches Notes
"It was a real good day today. The 1st match saw a bunch of players coming off the bench to help. It was a great experience for those players. 2nd match was very important to us la Verne is a tought team. They were really motivated to beat us following a loss to LMU prior. It was close game in the 1st period. The rest we were really dominate in the match.
Andrej played phenomenal against La Verne scoring 5 Goals. Mateja Bosic also scored big time for us. Patrick Zsiros he is constantly improving every match. Roberto was clutch in goal with 12 saves. Vicenzo Iguanta played very well defensivley for us. Tomorrow will be even more important for us. We will be playing the top 2 teams in the NCAA DIII with Claremont Mudd Scripps and Pomona Pitzer."
