COACH KARWECK'S COMMENTS
"Our effort was there today. We were flying around, putting our bodies on the line, and the guys did a great job with that. Our execution, on the other hand, was not great, and I need to coach these situations better. Army did a good job attacking us in transition. We're getting better, but Army is a good team, and I have unbelievable respect for Coach Alberici. We just have to be sharper in certain areas and score more than seven goals."
