THEY SAID IT
Head Coach Nick Brochu
On what Cloes and Marzol need to do at the NCAA Tournament to be successful: "The guys are very confident. If you can beat the number one team in the country, you can beat anybody. I think it'll come down to doing what they do and doing it 100 percent. They don't need to go out there and play better than what they were doing before. They earned the right to be in the tournament and they earned the win against Mississippi State. I think it's going to be about execution and if they can make the right choices."
