Quotables from Coach Chad Willis
"We didn't have our best effort today - we struggled to find consistency from the service line and on the defensive side of the ball. We're leaning some valuable lessons on what it takes to compete at a higher level late in the season. Fortunately, we've got two more weekends in front of us to continue to work and build momentum going into the Sun Belt Tournament."
