Coach Marchiano's Take On The Season Finish and Draw Against Rutgers
"Obviously, the season overall hasn't gone the way we wanted it to but we're proud of the representation that the girls showed today in terms of their energy, fight, togetherness, and performance in the way they played," interim head coach Michael Marchiano said. "To get a late goal is a good feeling, and that gives us some positivity to exit the season with. Despite it being a draw, I thought it maybe was one of our best performances of the season."
