QUOTABLE
Head Coach Steve Holeman
"This was a tough loss and always emotional when you're playing your last home game on senior night. They were so pumped and ready to play this game, and we played some good soccer. We were in this one the first 70 minutes and Boise is a very good team. There were so many advantages to playing at home this year and had some big wins. There were a lot of firsts this year, so it just makes it a little more difficult to end with a loss like that. But, we'll look back at this season at home and remember it as a very good season."
UP NEXT
The Bobcats will head to the Golden State to take on Fresno State next Thursday, Nov. 5 at 9:00 p.m. CT.
