"We just have not done a good job of finishing matches on the road for whatever reason. Our team has recommitted their focus for the home stretch and we are determined now more than ever to take care of these opportunities when they arise."

Jeffrey added, "We are a top 50 team Nationally we have to start playing like one on the court, no excuses lets just get the job done”.
