Post match comments from Roanoke Rapids head coach Craig Jean, "Again, we waited until the second half to start playing like we can. We never got a good rhythm in the 1st half. At halftime we switched some things up and my kids executed our plan beautifully. We had a 10 minute stretch in which we put 4 in the net that put them away and let us cruise to victory. Cameron Wilson was one bad man tonight. We got him attacking down the line and he banged one off the crossbar and fed Emerson for 3- they had no answer for him. Emerson did a great job sacrificing his body to get on the end of the serves. Thomas Merritt had a very good night again. I look forward to having some more fun tomorrow night at Warren County. "
