FULLERTON, CA -
HAYLEY BOLT, LONG BEACH STATE MIDFIELDER
"We were both really equal. It's hard to have it decided on penalty kicks, but it's something to build on."

"I think this is the beginning of something awesome for the program over the next three years. We went through a lot of pressure situations as freshmen, it was a year of adjusting to college life, and we adjusted pretty well."

HEAD COACH MAURICIO INGRASSIA
"After the sting of the loss goes away, I will take my hat off to these young women. We battled, we had some big plays, and created some chances. We have a very bright feature ahead of us, and will have to wait for the NCAA pairings.

"This loss is very motivational. These players have stepped up all year long, and I'm proud of what we've accomplished. These lades will walk out of here with their heads held high."
