Geoff Carlston, Ohio State head coach
On the game
“That was a match we could have won. We didn’t make big plays. We did some good things, but just didn’t make the big plays we needed. Playing in the Big Ten, you have to make those big plays when they count and we just couldn’t do that tonight. Hats off to Michigan. We are going to keep trying to get healthy and keep resting some of the kids and we’ll get better. I’m a little disappointed that we didn’t show the consistency we’ve had in the past tonight in terms of overall energy and being aggressive. Betsy Hone played good defense and made plays for us. Offensively, we didn’t play aggressively. If you are tentative, you are going to lose.”
Chelsea Noble, Ohio State junior captain
On the game
“We were right there tonight against a great team. We just have to believe that we can do come out and win these big games. As the season goes on and as we get more experience, the better we’ll get. The team needs to learn how to perform at the right moments. Tonight helped us prepare to beat the tough Big Ten opponents we have coming up.”
