WARD'S WORDS
Head coach Kevin Ward - "Consistency for this team is key, and we are fortunate to have some veteran guys who help provide that. So having them in the lineup whether it's first or last is good for us. They are leaders on the team without question. As we continue to strive to improve, our veterans lead the way. Even though we only have one senior in the lineup, we have some strong leaders."
UP NEXT
The Black Knights return to action on Feb. 1 when they travel to West Virginia for an 8 p.m. match.
