Coach's Remarks

"I’m very proud of our effort tonight against a well coached and aggressive Berry team. They turned us over quite a bit and their pressure caused us to struggle in the first half offensively. I thought we did some nice things over all and Lex had another huge double-double game for us. This so the most competitive we’ve been in a long time," stated Head Coach Nicky Dimarzio.
