COACH COLLINS'S COMMENTS
For the second game in a row, I was really pleased with our first half. I thought we showed up focused and ready to go. But man, we've got to figure these seconds halves out - they have not been very pretty for huge portions of the year, and it will cost us eventually if we don't figure it out.
UP NEXT
The Ravens head to Terre Haute on Saturday, December 14, at 3:00 p.m. to take on Rose-Hulman (4-2, 2-0) in Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference (HCAC) action.
