"We didn't adjust to the conditions, plain and simple," said Rider Head Coach Tom Battaglia. "Nothing more to say. We need to let it go and get ready for tomorrow. Tomorrow is a big day and they need to be ready to go."

The Broncs return to action Sunday, when they play host to Quinnipiac. First serve is scheduled for noon.
