HEAD COACH BRANDON BONILLA'S COMMENT
  • "Everybody showed up here this morning ready to play and this might be one of the best weekends of soccer against really talented opponents we've had in a long time."
  • "To go 2-2 with a Pacific Lutheran team who was 18-4 a year ago, who was a national tournament team and have the fight to come back after scoring really early and then going down again was a testament to the team and the adjustments we made."
  • "We talked about it after the game and they've set a standard now and its our job to hold them to it. I cant be any prouder of this group and what they've done over the weekend and I'm really excited to look forward and get to Dordt on Wednesday back at home, and give everyone in Lincoln a preview of what could be a really fun year with a great group of guys."
