COACH GIN'S COMMENTS
A great way to cap off a big week for us. It was a very gritty win. Defensively, I thought we did a really good job of keeping players in front of us. We battled on the glass well, too. Offensively, it wasn't our prettiest game. Berea did a really good job of keeping us off balance, but we did a good job of staying together and having a balanced attack.
UP NEXT
