Recap |  Final Stats

Marist Head Coach Brian Giorgis

Opening statement:

"I thought we played very well as a team. Outside of very early in the game when we were a little tentative defensively, I thought we did a very good job of contesting shots and trying to limit them to one shot. They had a rough day shooting."

Red-shirt junior center Meg Dahlman:

On the team's performance:

"I think our bench did an amazing job. Like coach said, whoever he put in was producing. I think everyone was really happy to have a home game, and we really wanted to come in and get it done."

Junior guard Nikki Flores:

On the team's first home game in 40 days:

"Man, I missed this place. The crowd is just amazing. We still have our parents who travel with us, but it's not the same as being in this gym, and I think it's a sixth man for us. I think the crowd really helps us out a lot."

Freshman forward Rachele Fitz:

On the performance of the post players:

"We had a lot of fun out there today; I had a lot of fun. Just being home was awesome."
