POSTGAME QUOTE
Pacific head coach
Adam Reeves following Saturday's match:
"Our season seems to be aligning exactly with the current Pandemic times...really strange and unfortunate. We create many good opportunities and the ball just won't go in, and the opponent scores a freak header from the top of the 18 to win the match. The lessons of developing the mental toughness and fortitude to overcome these tough times will pay dividends in the fall."
