It was great to be on John Fallon Field. St. Bonaventure came out really strong, and I was really proud of how we responded. We were really focused in on our draw controls and gaining possession. They had two early goals, but after we held them scoreless, and I thought our offense did a really good job of spreading the ball and having multiple threats. We cause a lot of turnovers on our ride, which is something we've been focusing on, so I'm really proud of our efforts there."
