Head Coach Kai Edwards said

"We are excited to play at home and in front of our fans for the first time this season. UNO is a quality opponent and are ranked ninth in this weeks West Region Poll. We have a lot of good things to build off of from our first two games and I am looking forward to watching the team continue to get better as we keep on this tough non-conference schedule."
