Coach Spallina's Take
"I was happy with our approach today; mid-week road games are never easy. We came out and jumped on Marist early - set the tone and jumped out big. Our heavy hitters came out and took care of business and we were able to get so many people quality playing time. It was really great to see some of our freshmen step up and contribute the way they did. We shift our attention now to preparing for a great Northwestern team."
