 Denison falls to Dickinson 15-8 here on day two of the Mustang Classic. Glenn Clark with the head coach, Mike Caravana. Coach, any concerns about maybe like a hangover effect? You guys got out to the 2-0 lead in the first quarter. I guess what happened there in quarter number two is it snowballed. I just think they just caught fire a little bit, you know, and the momentum went their way as you saw the game beforehand. All of a sudden, you know, RIT was at the momentum and then Amherst stormed back. And we just couldn't get to stop, you know, that we needed. We couldn't get the goals we needed a little bit against them. So it was a little bit of a challenge for us. They played a great second quarter and it seemed everything went their way. You know, all the all the breaks went their way, but they earned them, you know. So we just didn't play as well as we needed to play for the for the four quarters. But I was happy that we played a good fourth quarter. Yeah, I thought and really stepped up our competitiveness and kind of answered the bell a little bit, which was good. Coach, I wanted to ask you about both goalies on on their side. It seemed like Pelikano always seemed to have the number every time you guys got some good looks and he still managed even on the doorstep to make some some really great saves. Yeah, he made some very good saves. He made some key saves at some key times that we didn't have with the ball a lot of times in the in the second quarter when they kind of pulled ahead of us. But they made some plays there. And at that point in time, it was, you know, we had some shots we needed to make happen and didn't go before. So on the flip side, however, your goalie again, making that first start in a difficult spot for Paris, I thought, despite the fact that ends up giving up 15 goals, he made a lot of really good plays as well. He did. Steven kept us in the game, I think, for a period of time early and kind of get us that lead, I think. And but give them credit, you know, I thought they shot the ball pretty well. And Steven kind of hung in there and played well. I thought the rest of the game. So we were encouraged by that. And, you know, some individuals did play very well for us. It's just not enough of a coach. Moving forward, how do you move past a tough weekend like this? Well, I've been doing this for 27 years, you know, and I can't always tell you that the right answer, each team is a little bit different. I think with this team, you know, we're going to have to kind of sit down and talk with some of the captains and be very candid with you. I think we were 28 or, excuse me, 40 and four the last couple of years. And two of those goals were, excuse me, two of those losses were by a goal to Salisbury, went to being a national champion. So we're kind of not used to, you know, kind of having these losses a little bit. But yet, you know, the world's going to turn and it's not always going to be in your favor all the time. And so we've got to figure out a little bit what we want to do. But I've been here before and we've had some difficult situations on our spring trips and yet we've come back and done well. And we've got a chance to do well in our conference and another couple of national games coming up. So we've got to figure it out a little bit. And that's why I get paid the big bucks and kind of do what I need to do and kind of work it out. But I'm encouraged by the competitiveness that we showed at the end of the game. I'm encouraged by the disappointment that the boys are feeling down below. So as long as there's a sense of caring, then there's a sense of hope and we'll try to do the best we can to keep building that up. Well, Coach, I know it was a tough weekend, but we're always happy to have you guys here at the Mustang class. I can really appreciate you taking the time for us after this one. We're always glad to be here and it's a great opportunity for us to play amongst the best teams in the country. He is Denison Coach Mike Caravana. I'm Glenn Clark for GoMustangSports.com.
