“Despite scoring early, we came out flat and it took us a while to control the game,” said coach Hideki Nakada. “We challenged our team at half and they responded by scoring within 19 seconds of the second half.”
“I am proud of our players for how they’ve conducted themselves during this preseason. They came prepared and put in a great deal of work and effort each day, and I’m excited for us to get ready for our season opener starting tomorrow.”
