It was a back and forth struggle. The game was a good early season test on the road. No one should have lost, but someone had to.

We let up, and didn't finish the game the way we are supposed to. You have to play seven innings all the time, and we learned our lesson today.

We have a lot of guys returning with varsity experience. I think we've gotten stronger. We should be very competitive. The guys have been working very hard and want to have a successful season.

We swim well on the road, but we also swim well in our own pool. Other teams tend to struggle a little bit in our pool and hopefully that'll be the case on Friday.

Together we have travelled a long road to be where we are today. This has been a road of struggle against colonial and apartheid oppression.

You might struggle on the road or you might lose a home game or two, but this is new to us, and new to me.
