Coachs Remarks
"Tough trip for us going into the break. We expended so much energy yesterday in the Widener game and just weren't able to bounce back. All the credit to Ursinus. They out-coached, outworked, and outplayed us for 40 minutes and deserved to win the basketball game. 

All CCIW play the rest of the way. Need to refocus and get healthy going to the new year."
