QUOTABLE
Head Coach Richard Moodie
"Not happy with the result but not upset with the result. Georgia State is a good team but when you're at home, we need to push a little more. Soccer is a game of chances and we had some chances. We had a penalty and were unlucky not to capitalize off the penalty. I thought we caused a threat for a majority of the game, we just lacked that killer instinct."
UP NEXT
The Jaguars continue Sun Belt play at The Cage Thursday night as they host in-state foe Troy at 7 p.m.
