Coach's Corner
Head Coach Dante Calabria said "It was a good team win tonight with very unselfish play. We shot the heck out of the ball from the three-point line, and anytime you do that it makes the game seem pretty easy. On the defensive end, we also did pretty well with holding their top player Ellenwood in check. We got to build off of the momentum from the Edward Waters win and we hope to bring momentum from that win and tonight's win as we head back into conference play this weekend."
