Head coach Will Hander on this weekend's matchups stated, "I've tried to handle winning well, so that maybe we'll win again, but I've also tried to handle failure well. If those serve as good examples for teachers and kids, then I hope that would be a contribution I have made to sport. Not just soccer, but to sport."
