TWU Head Jean LaForest
"It was our best game of the weekend. We came out strong and dominated the third period. It's a loss, but we took a lot of positives out of this one, especially in executing our systems.
 
"We had resiliency tonight. We learned a lot about our team and our deficiencies, but we consider this a successful trip based on what we can take from our experience."
