We had eight shots on goal that should have gone in. I thought Highland outplayed us in the first half, and we outplayed them in the second.

It was an offensive show.

We had a pretty solid game, generally speaking. We did good against an emotional and physically tough opponent.

At first I thought there was some tension between us with the new guy coming in, but they've done a great job adjusting to my system, working with me and embracing me. I really love these guys and I'm sorry we ended this way, but they're great young men.

I thought we had a shot at about seven matches. It didn't work out for us. They're an experienced team. We wrestled tough, but they were the better team.

The audience has been telling us for a long time that they want to see more, so we thought we'd try and give them what we have.
