HEAD COACH CHRISTIAN MICHNER
"Well, we were poor right from the start. Honestly, I can't think of another game I've ever coached where we were beaten so convincingly in every category. Not good enough in this league to have a performance like that. I'll be looking to see what this team's response is like on Sunday. That will be telling."

WHAT'S NEXT
The Cougars will return home to face off against Hofstra on Sunday, Oct. 6 with kick-off scheduled for 1 p.m. at Ralph Lundy Field at Patriots Point in Mount Pleasant, S.C.
