From the Coach
"Anytime you run up against a team that's ranked #1 in the nation and coming off the Indoor National Championship it's going to be a great opportunity and experience for our program," said head Coach Simon Earnshaw. "With it being UNC-CH adds to that, I don't think we are under any illusions that its going to be anything other than difficult but these type of situations should bring out the best in our program. Coupled with that we have a tough ETSU team later tomorrow back at home, so we understand the challenge and that this is going to be a pivotal day for all of us. Go Pack!"
