COACH'S THOUGHTS
"N.C. Wesleyan is a good team and they battled really hard," said Head Coach James Lofton. "I thought it was a very even game. At halftime we talked to the team about believing in our ability to come out and put together a 45-minute performance. They did that with heart, effort and good energy, and that's why our break came at the end of the game."

NEXT GAME
Lofton's team will be back in action Wednesday, Oct. 11, at Salem College. THe USA South game is scheduled for a 4:00 p.m. start in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.
