"Not to take away anything from our opponents, but we didn't play like we're capable of playing," Penn Yan Penguins coach Neal Fischer said.
Adding salt to the wound, Penn Yan Penguins could have scored 78 points and earned the win with their best lineup, but Neal Fischer left key players like Arian Foster and his corresponding 15 points on the bench.
