WORDS WITH WARHAWKS

"First let's give credit to Coach McConico's team. I think she does a really good job coaching and preparing her team for their opponents," Interim Head Women's Basketball Coach Steve Kenner said. "I give credit to all our players for paying attention and having the right energy in our practices this week. That was a direct result of our ability to think, concentrate, and execute! The ball had energy tonight and it was finding the right people almost every possession and we were having fun while being selfless. This was a great win for our program and to build on our confidence as we start conference play this weekend."
