Head Coach
Daniel Finn said, "This will be a tough stretch for the boys both physically and mentally. Both Flagler and Valdosta State are strong programs. Obviously, we have already seen Flagler earlier this season and we came out on the right end of that match-up, but I'm sure they will be ready for us tomorrow. And then to follow it up with Valdosta State the very next day will not be an easy test. I'm definitely interested and excited to see how the boys handle themselves against these two teams."
