“We played tough football for the first two quarters and we were down 13-7 at the half. We had the game within striking distance, but a costly turnover proved too much to overcome. As we get more experience, our players will learn to finish drives and close out games with more efficiency. We have improved a great deal since last season, and our staff is excited to put in the work with our players this offseason.”
