HEAR FROM COACH KALIN
- "It was a game of believing or not, of listening and executing or not. For the first 30 minutes, we didn't. For large parts of the rest of the game we did and we competed with - even outplayed - one of the top teams in the country. We have to take the positives from this and go forward. We are showing now that we are a very good team."
UP NEXT
- Marymount returns to Long Bridge Park on Wednesday, Sept. 11 against Hood. Kick-off for SYC Night is set for 7 PM.
