Quote from Coach Schreiber:
"What a great win. We were coming off a big conference victory and had to go on the road to a team that has been playing great. I made it a point in pre-game to let the team know we had to put a string of matches together before we made believers out of ourselves. They responded by taking control of momentum the entire match."
