TEAM THOUGHTS: 

"Unfortunately, the Seahawks couldn't come out with a 2-0 Saturday morning," said coach Sebastian Noordzy. "Regis played a very tough game and we were able to get their offense ticking and we didn't have an answer for a lot of stretches in the match. Despite this, it's an opportunity to see what areas we need to shore up heading into NEWMAC play. We were able to bounce back after our loss and take care of business against Husson. A lot of different players got opportunities to compete, and morale was high to end the day."
