Coach Biggs' Comments
"Today. We didn't play with the same confidence that we have shown throughout the preseason and for sure in the season opener. We recovered at half-time and were better in the second half - holding them scoreless while creating two very good chances and scoring a brilliant goal from a third. This game should help us learn to stay consistent and true to our way of playing even when we encounter a rough stretch, and the opponent is pushing us.".
- The Seawolves scored three goals in the first half.
