Coach Tomic's Take
"We are excited and looking forward to competing for another MAC Championship in Muncie, IN next week. Our goal is always to compete for a championship, and we know we have the team, skills, and experience to accomplish that goal again this season. We also know that it won't be easy, but we wouldn't want it any other way. The keys to our success are simply being us, playing loose, and playing the BGVB style of play that has made us a championship program."
