QUOTABLE
  • "Iona has some exceptionally talented players and is a very good team. Sunday noon games are hard to turn around for, but I thought our group did an excellent job of preparing and executing a game plan that allowed us to limit their technique and see us create some great chances. We should have scored a second, but again, I was pleased with the way we closed the game out and got a great result against a very good team." ~ Radford head coach, Marc Reeves
