“Rutgers gets a lot of numbers behind the ball and they’re a pretty physical team,” said head coach Steve Swanson. “We knew this would be the kind of game that transpired today. We didn’t move the ball as well as we should have or as quickly as we needed to change the point. Credit Rutgers for that because they didn’t give us a lot of good looks and got it into a penalty kick situation where anything can happen, and it did. They played hard to come in to our place and play they way the did defensively, you have to give them credit.

“Rutgers has been a difficult team to break down all year. You can’t look at it as the penalty kick contest was the reason we lost. We had 110 minutes to break them down and we didn’t do that. They’ve been difficult to break down all year and you have to give them their due. They were organized and limited our chances.”
