COACH JACIE HOYT, QUOTED

"Eight wins at this point in the season is great, but at the same time we're not satisfied at all. We talked in the locker room about how everything we want to accomplish this year is about the month of March and everything leading up to that is preparation."
"We shot 57% in the first quarter, and I think a lot of that is just focus coming into games like this. In general, I'm pleased with the way that we shoot, but also not surprised. It's kind of what we do."
"We're focused on one game at a time at this point and we have our work cut out for us. These next two games are going to be tough."

UP NEXT
After a pair of home wins, the Roos are back on the road on Sunday at 1 p.m. for a game against Tennessee State that will be featured on ESPN+.
