Head Coach Ryan Martin
Overall thoughts:
"I think we came out slow with a lack of commitment in the first half. I think tonight is a lesson and the response on Saturday will show how the team will pull together and decide to get over this mountain. They will work on winning individual duels and making sure they are ready to compete. When we do play really good ball it shows and these guys have the talent to play really good ball together."
On young players on the field:
"I think there is going to be jitters when you make your professional debut, once Garay and Cerritos both settled into the game they both did well. It's always a lot of pressure in your debut and how you handle it. Especially when you are in the back or central midfielder, any mistake is magnified. I think they did really well overall for the tough game they got put in to."
Captain Kyle Murphy
Overall thoughts:
"We started a bit slow tonight, and Charleston really capitalized on that. I thought the second half we responded well but couldn't follow through to equalize."
Looking at Saturday
"I think that having games in a quick turn around is a good thing. You can't dwell on this game you have to prepare and refocus to Ottawa on Saturday. We have to have a better mentality, this is the time we really need to pick it up to fight for playoffs."
