Following the game, Assistant Coach Arthur Salazar said, “I thought the men did better today compared to yesterday. They played with technique rather than physicality. They made some changes overall from the individual player to the group mentality. They kept their composure and played according to strength. USAO is a very good team, so this was a good win for us.” Read more online.
