Post match comments by Jackets head coach Craig Jean, "We played much better today than the previous two games this week. We beat a very good Currituck team. We still have some problems that we continue to address that we've got to fix. We need to handle adversity and pressure better than we've been doing if we are going to reach our potential. We had some very good finishes tonight. We get back to conference play next week with 3 straight games. "
