POST GAME QUOTES
"We certainly put the ball in the back of the net today-but our defense started off incredibly flat, and we didn't come out on top because of it," head coach Kara Concheck said. "We are encouraged by the improvements we are making as a team, however we need to find consistency end line to end line in order to put a solid sixty minutes of Eagle lacrosse together. We will continue to chip away in the day-to-day are are holding our heads high."

ON DECK
Winthrop travels to California on Sun., Mar. 10 to face the Golden Bears in Berkeley. The game will be at 3:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time.
