Opening Statement From Head Coach Ryan Hyland
"As the year comes to a close and we try to look back on the year as a whole, we are disappointed that we are not playing games in March like we hope to at the beginning of each season. We will miss those guys that will be graduating and have no doubt that they will enjoy many successes in their next endeavors after basketball. Off the court, this group grew, minute-to-minute, game-to-game. We created some lasting memories through our time spent together on and off the court. As we wrapup this year, there is a lot to be proud of and build upon as we look to get the program back where we expect to be."
