Quote From Coach Viggiano

 

• "Thought the first half, the breaks and little things went against us and we were fighting ourselves a bit. We've been a little snake-bit and on the wrong side of some decisions and a can sense the frustration from the guys. However, I thought we played well in the second half and showed character to come back and grab a point. If we continue to work and do the little things the soccer god will hopefully begin to reward us a little more."
• "Big match on Wednesday (Oct. 11) against the defending champ, hopefully the Red Fox nation will be out to push us onward!"
