COACHES CORNER
"They are probably the most consistent team we have played this year; consistent in what they do, consistent in how they play," said Wilmington head coach Steve Spirk. "When you give them chances, they are going to put them away. There was a 10-minute span in the first half in which we gave them three goals. We don't give that up, maybe it's a close game. You can't make the mistakes we made today and win games."
WHAT'S NEXT
Wilmington (5-8-2 overall, 1-4-1 OAC) travels to Mount Union 1 p.m. Saturday for its final regular season road game of the year.
