Head Coach Nick Carlin-Voigt on the win

"Really proud of our seniors tonight for everything they have given the program and UP. They are model student-athletes in every way and have been a part of a great period of success in our program. It's not easy or normal to have an undefeated season at home and we accomplished that tonight for the first time in 27 years. So proud of my seniors who are incredible humans first and great players second. They have been a pleasure to coach. We believe good people make good players and they have achieved so much in their career and aren't done yet. They mean so much to me personally and to my family and it was imperative we won for them on their last regular season game at Merlo field.
 
You saw the type of football we can play in the second half: a dominate brand of crisp passing and attacking. Thanks to the entire soccer community for supporting us all season long. We will enjoy this and turn our attention to Pacific next weekend."
