WORDS FROM COACH
"That's what the ASUN is all about, especially this year, this probably the most dense conference we've had in all my years at Stetson, top to bottom, so everybody is going to be fighting for wins each and every week and today was a great example of that," said Christophe Noblet. "UNA came to play, UNA was tough, we had to match the challenge and at the end showed a lot of grit and a lot of heart, fighting for each other, and I'm very proud of the guys for it. UNA is a very good team and they're going to win a lot of matches in the ASUN so ASUN matches are tough and today was a great reminder of that for us."
