ON THE RECORD
"Really proud of our guy's effort here in game one. Andrew Williams was outstanding for six innings, and he really kept them off balance. Cody Bowker came in behind him and gave us a three inning save and that was great for us. Defensively we played really clean and on offense, Bowker had another great day for us. With a double and triple and Andrew Bergeron was stellar as well going 2-for-3." - Head Coach Edwin Thompson on game one
 
"Have to give Seton Hall a lot of credit, their pitchers were really good, and they didn't give us too many free bases. Their catcher had an unbelievable day and I tip my cap to them they are a great team, and it is tough to win here on the road. Proud of how we fought through, and we had the tying run at the plate in the ninth, so we didn't give up. I love how we competed, and we just fell a little bit short today and in the series. We will take a few days here and we will be ready to go on Tuesday when we take on Maryland." – Head Coach Edwin Thompson on game two
