Quotes & Notes
"Our kids came out of the Southern Scuffle doing exactly what we asked them to do and what we've worked on since we've gotten home from it. That's where the transition has to occur. You have to trust what we're telling you, you have to be willing to make changes and you have to get confidence and match time – movements, pressures, reactions – in order to get more confidence with it so you can become more successful in those positions."
"I expect to make a good run right now. We've got some bears in the woods out there with Iowa State coming into our gym next Thursday. We travel to Minnesota. We've got Maryland coming in. We have Lock Haven and the rest of our conference teams, with George Mason and Clarion and Bloomsburg. So it's not an easy schedule by any stretch. But it's a schedule that will get us prepared for the conference tournament and the NCAA Championships. But I expect them to put the gas pedal down and drive and push and start climbing uphill." – Rider Head Coach John Hangey
