“Wheaton put together two solid games tonight and we just couldn’t make the things happen that we needed to,” said head coach Kasi Sieling of the Chargers. “We battled hard both games, but to win games you need to throw strikes and play clean defense, which we struggled to do. We are looking forward to some practice after a busy start to the season and keep working to improve.”
