TOP QUOTE
Head Coach Nick Cowell on the draw…

“I thought we played well defensively. This is our fourth game with a shutout and we battled hard. I felt we had a good defensive strategy for the game. We just need to concentrate a little bit more on the offensive third. Our final ball wasn’t where it was supposed to be, and I felt like we played into their hands a little bit. We just have to figure out how to break teams down in the attacking third.”

WHAT’S NEXT
The Hilltoppers open their Heartland Conference road slate Thursday against Lubbock Christian at 3 p.m. at the LCU Soccer Field. Live stats and video will be available at GoHilltoppers.com.
