COACH NOTES:Â
Josh Wastvedt said
"Duluth is just very, very talented. It's an established program, it's someone that - we're in a different phase in our program where we're trying to make a lot of changes.
To play against an opponent so trained and so consistent, that's already tough, and coming in, they played a very clean match, and we just didn't respond well."
