Coaches comments on the loss…

"We didn't start as quickly as we have all season, but we responded well to their opener and played on the front foot for the last 30 minutes of the first half.  We started quickly in the second half and hit the post from a couple of yards out the in the first 20 seconds. We continued to fight and countered their second with a great goal a couple of minutes later. While we pushed hard until the end and saw a header  hit the crossbar, we couldn't get ourselves all the way back into the game."

  • Goalkeeper Shannon Mejia made a diving save off a shot from Maine's Abby Kraemer but was unable to keep the ball out of play.
