COACHES CORNER
“We survived.  It was good to get the win over a quality opponent.  We struggled again from the free throw line in the fourth quarter.  We got outrebounded badly, and we turned the ball over way too much, but we found a way to win.  Dylan Egr and Brendan Lacey both stepped up on the offensive end for us tonight and made some big shots.” -- Coach Kevin Scheef.
