Head Coach Dave Rollins – “Not the result we wanted today. But we couldn’t have asked for a more competitive atmosphere. When you get the two best teams going head to head, you hope it brings out the best in everyone. And that’s exactly what happened today. Proud of how we battled in the pool and on the boards. But we are definitely not satisfied today. This one hurts, but it’s not what happens to you, it’s how you respond. It’s on us to respond.”

The Eagles will host the Eagle Winter Invitational at 2:00 p.m. on Jan. 10 on the FGCU Aquatics Complex.
