QUOTE OF THE GAME
"Tonight was a tale of two halves. Commerce was excellent in the first half and scored a goal. We dominated in the second and had a goal called back. We made progress in our ability to compete with the problems that Commerce creates and we look forward to hopefully seeing them again in the conference tournament." – Head coach Damian Clarke
