PLAYER’S COMMENTS
“… Well, we had one of our starters out with a lower body injury so stepping into the starting lineup was a little nerve racking at first. Once I got in the flow of the game I felt very confident and comfortable in the rotation.”
“… It was very important for us to finish the regular season on a high note. Going into the conference tournament we just have to play with an unbelievable amount of confidence in our team to bring home the championship.”
