What Coach Says:

Coach Richard Westerlund said this about performance against Urbana, "I didn't like our effort tonight. We cannot expect to win a game if we aren't going to play 40 minutes. I understand we are coming off finals week and getting close to break but we have to show up and compete. We have to take more pride in what we do. I am very disappointed with our energy tonight. Blake Stephens and Seamus Anglin were two guys who stood out tonight to me with their energy and effort. We have to refocus and have a good practice friday to prepare for Huntington University on Saturday and Cincinatti Clermont on Monday."
