"It was fun to get a chance to play here in Kentucky against a good NKU side for the first time,” said Crusader head coach Mike Avery. “NKU has one of the nicest soccer facilities in the league, are talented and well-coached, and have obviously been a great addition to the league. We left a few really good chances on the table today, so we felt like we did enough to take all three points, but to be fair to NKU, they had a few good looks as well.” Read more
