“We weren't offensive. That was the main thing. We talked about that we needed to get the first takedown and get a chance to get on top. We didn't give ourselves chances. We weren't daring out there.”
“We have a 125-pounder lose and somebody else upper weight has to pick up the slack and we seem to have done that. Ohio was a good win. They're a nice team but there are a lot of guys that left unsatisfied because we split with them match-wise. And the James Madison win was also a little bit bittersweet having lost several matches to them as well.”
“We treated it like other matches and went in with a workman's-like attitude. We knew what we had to do and feeling that we matched up pretty well with Maryland, we were confident going into the match.”
“As a freshman, Eric has stepped into a starting position and I think his record speaks for itself. He will probably be the number-one seed in the conference tournament.”
“Going into the tournament, we recognized the considerable parity of the top four teams in the conference. So, we looked at it in terms of if we do really well, we could take the whole thing. And on the other hand, if we do really poorly, we could be fourth.”
“We will have a better team for sure next year. And it won't be only from the conference perspective, but from the national one as well. I think we definitely have a shot at fielding one of the top 15, and at least one of the top 20, teams in the country.”
