HEAD COACH CHRISTIAN MICHNER
"Overall, it was a pretty good first outing for us. After only a few days of training we knew we'd see some really good things and also some things that we'll want to address going forward. I was very happy with our freshmen, especially who were getting their first college minutes tonight. I think we have real bright spots and can't wait to get back to work this week to prepare for our next one at NC State."

CofC is set to travel to Raleigh, N.C. to face off against NC State for its last exhibition match before the start of the regular season on Saturday, Aug. 17 at 11 a.m.
