QUOTABLES
Head Coach Rodney Hennon
"It wasn't' pretty, but I'm proud of the guys for hanging in there. We got some good pitching today, particularly from (Connor) Simmons and (Landon) Hughes again. I'm proud of Tarez Miller coming into the game in a tough spot and he did his job for the team, putting down a couple of sacrifice bunts in some key situations. C.J. Ballard made some things happen off the bench, but we've got a lot of things to work on to get ready for the week ahead, starting with College of Charleston on Wednesday."
