Coach Spallina's Take
"It was a great performance by our team tonight. These games are tough because you can throw the records out when it's a rivalry game and a battle for Long Island. I thought our kids came out with a great focus and I thought we fed off the energy … There was a good buzz in the crowd. We talked with the team about the importance of the game, not only for our season, but for our profile on Long Island and everything that goes along with playing a local rival."
