Thoughts from Coach Briscoe
"Tonight we struggled out of the gate but found ways later on to stay in the fight.  Our middles did a great job producing for us offensively and this alleviated a lot of pressure from our pin attackers. Defensively I am very proud of our effort as we were able to contain their top three attackers and hold two of them far below their average efficiency.  Overall tonight will be counted as a success and will be the fuel to push closer to our potential for these upcoming conference matchups."
