COMMENTS FROM COACH DANNY ACOSTA


"We did not have a good level of energy today. I thought we were flat throughout the ballgame."


"We continue to have opportunities to generate runs. I think we have been trying to do a little too much at the plate in those moments. We have to be better at putting the ball in play and finding ways to advance the runners."



UP NEXT


The Hawks will host UMASS on Wednesday at 3 pm.
