Coach Matt Creadore talks about the game stating, “We came out a little slow and a little flat. They got out ahead of us quick. We ended the 1st half tied. Came out with a lot of intensity the second half but quickly went down another one. Tied it up and finally got ahead with a PK near the end.

We played well but have a lot of things to fine tune and work on going forward.”

The Eagles continue with the tournament today at 4pm and on Saturday at 11:15 and 1:45 in Teutopolis.
