COACH KOOLMAN ON THE GAME:
“It is disappointing because I thought we had good rhythm in the first and then all of a sudden we gave it away. We scored a good goal and then the two goals that Brown scored we created for them by losing possession in key parts of the field. The other part of the game is belief. In the second half, we started playing with belief and we could create chances. The second half was better but we have to do that from the beginning.”
Holy Cross takes on Loyola Maryland at home on Oct. 20 at 1:05 p.m.
