Coach Penny said:
"Today was a lesson learned. I hate to say it, but it was boys against men out there. We can't expect to get anything out of games if we are not up for the challenge. I accept full responsibility and maybe my team selection was not the best. We are not playing well at the moment, but I'm determined to get us to a good place by the next conference game. We have a lot of new faces, and we are working hard to piece the puzzle together."
Next on the schedule
* The Eagles have a few days off before playing host to University of Maine at Machias on Sunday at noon.
