HEAD COACH BRITTANY WILLIAMS
 
"We've been trying to find our own rhythm and not let the strengths and weaknesses of our opponents dictate how we play. It was big that we played our own game."
 
"Alondra's play of late is a huge piece. Opponent middles have to stay with our middles and …Bautista and Jefferson 1-on-1? With anybody? That ball is coming down hard. Alondra has buckled down and showed us another dimension."
 
"Being 8-8 and undefeated in conference play is big. We're finally finding our stride."
 
 
NOTES: The Wildcats are at .500 after 16 matches for the first time since 2004. That team was 9-7 after 16 matches and finished 14-12 … Emile had four kills and two blocks … Jefferson now has 10 double-doubles this season … Four of B-CU's MEAC opponents were held to under .100 hitting…Neely posted her 700th career kill in the second set; she's tenth on the all-time kills list.
