“Nobody on the team came out with the right amount of intensity to play Saint Peter’s. And when you come out against Saint Peter’s and they get comfortable like that their deal is they just come after your manhood. And they came after our manhood and we weren’t ready, and that is on me.” - King Rice on his team’s loss against Saint Peter’s.

 

 

“He had some comments before the game about our team. And my mindset today was going into this game and making sure we win it. I’m not saying we had to prove anybody wrong, but I really wanted him to eat those words. Unfortunately, we came up short.” - Jao Ituka on their loss against Siena.
