Head Coach Scott Marr: "We just got outworked in the first half.  We didn't have a lot of energy for some reason.  We didn't compete hard enough in the first half.  We did in the second half, but you have to play a full game.  Vermont took advantage of it.  We didn't shoot the ball well, and Vermont took advantage of the times they had the ball.  It's disappointing, because I don't think we played our best.  I think we can play a lot better than we did, but we'll move on to next week."
