"Not pretty from us today," said Head Coach,
Daniel Finn, "STU creates a place of chaos that isn't easy to play in. Credit to them for competing and making things difficult but I'm not happy with our intensity and focus today. We didn't do a good job of being patient and executing early on. Combine that with us being flat, it honestly made things a lot tougher on ourselves than it needed to be. In the end, credit to the ladies for doing what it took to get the job done and picking up what will soon be a top-10 win on the road, but the expectation is a lot higher for us. We will get right back to work tomorrow and get ready for another tough road test at Embry Riddle on Saturday."
Keiser turns around to face Division II, No. 18 Embry-Riddle on the road on Saturday in Daytona Beach, Fla.
