COACHES COMMENT: Head Coach Josh Petrusma, "This was probably our most complete game of the season thus far. That said, we have plenty to clean up. I liked our structure for much of the game, but we're still finding ourselves going back to old habits in spurts within the game, which shouldn't be the case this far into the season. The next four games are critical and against very strong opponents. We're looking forward to the challenge."
 
NEXT UP: Calvin heads to Holland to take on the Flying Dutch of Hope College. The game will be on Friday, November 13th at 7:30pm.
