"We had a shaky start against a motivated and athletic Concordia team, but settled down and took control in the second quarter," said head coach Tim Murdoch. "We rested 11 players, including eight starters, to provide an opportunity for many hard-working players at the back end of our roster to gain invaluable game experience," added Murdoch, who indicated that he looks forward to a CUFLA-sanctioned rivalry with the Stingers when they join the league next year.
