Post match comments by Jackets head coach Craig Jean, " We played pretty well tonight. We possessed the ball as good as I have seen all year. Thomas Merritt did a great job getting involved in possession, he probably had 25 plus touches with his feet and that opened up so much space. Anderson Castillo had his best game as a Jacket so far. He scored a couple of highlight reel worthy goals. I am pleased to finish the week off with the 3rd win. The entire 24 team members got a lot of work this week as well. We are on a great run that we are gonna look to keep going Monday at home vs South Granville"
