Coach Blohm's Comments: "We had another slow start against St. Mary's, but were able to settle down and execute offensively. Usually we rely on our defense to make big plays, it was nice to finally see our offense get rolling. Lukas Oswald had a season high 17 points and 11 rebounds. Our defense did step up when we needed it, taking another 3 charges in the game. Bringing our total to 16 in 6 games. Great win against a very talented team."
