COACH'S THOUGHTS
"The same mistakes continue to trouble our team and make it difficult for us to compete to the best of our ability," said Head Coach Tyler Sanborn. "Turnovers and offensive rebounds kill our positives plays and gives our opponents more opportunities to score, and they capitalized a lot tonight. We have to continue to learn from our mistakes and improve. We never got into a rhythm offensively due to turnovers and mental errors. Our level of focus has to be better moving forward."

NEXT GAME
Sanborn's team will play next at Pfeiffer University on Wednesday, Jan. 17. The non-conference game is scheduled to tip off at 7:30 p.m. in Misenheimer, North Carolina.
