AC Boise left winger Blake Bodily commented on the team's performance.

"We made them uncomfortable at times, won the ball in good spots, and created some good chances. Obviously, we didn’t finish all of them, but we did a lot of really good things. We just have to be better in those transition moments — that’s what cost us the three points,” said Bodily.

What's next for the Boise soccer team? They will play at home against Westchester SC on Saturday, April 18, at 7 p.m. MT.
