The Rambelles return home for Senior Day on Saturday, facing off with Eastern New Mexico, with kickoff scheduled for 1 p.m. in San Angelo.
 
From Head Coach Travis McCorkle: "We got to be better we have to get better with the ball we get through the halfway line and just lose the ball. We have to get that cleared up by Saturday. I feel we still have a good chance in the first half to be in the game.  I thought their first shot was a good goal for them, and I felt we were still in it even after that goal. It was nice to see us get a goal on a set piece by Madison Maxey. That was probably the positive of the game. We just have a lot that we need to improve upon".
