Quote
"I Thought we did a good job sticking to the game plan and not getting frustrated when the bounces weren't going our way. Some guys like
Frank Zak and
Lucas Andersson were excellent in the defensive zone, blocking shots and doing all the little things. It's nice to go into our Wisconsin trip feeling good about our game." -Nichols head coach
