BROWNING'S BULLETS: "Today was a tough one. We put ourselves in position to win at every spot and just came up short. We were a little short handed today but competed to the best of our ability. We just have to regroup and get ready for our 2nd conference match against Rhode Island."
LOOK AHEAD: The Colonials will be back in action on Saturday at 4:30pm to host conference foe Rhode Island at the STLC.
