"There is so much more for this team to do," said coach Adam Preston. "In a month, the retrospect will be powerful and meaningful but we have bigger goals than just a conference regular season championship. We have the support of a program that dates back over 20 years. We owe it to ourselves, to the ones who came before us and to everyone who supports us to do something greater. I am so proud to be a part of this program and university. And especially proud of my guys and what they have accomplished this year. But we are not done yet."
