"Started out played well," Vossen said. "Then we got a little lazy. The second period was probably the worst period we've played in ten games. In the third period we came out and showed we can play with these guys... whatever it is we can't get over that hump."

Full interview with coach Dale Vossen"I want to see guys play for pride," Vossen said. "There are guys here playing for next year at a higher level and there are guys who are playing to get back here next year. Everybody's got to improve their game."

"There are some fragile egos here. They get down a couple goals and there's some guys that really don't think we can come back. They've given up and maybe cost some other guys an opportunity to prosper."

Greve's 2-goal game was the 4th of his season.

"I just felt more comfortable," Greve said. "Better with the puck... the more you play the more you get better."

The Legionnaires are winless in ten games and host the Notre Dame Hounds on Thursday.
