PREGAME COMMENTS FROM HEAD COACH MATT SPEAR
We look forward to hosting St. Joe's because they are on a five-game unbeaten streak and a recent quality when over for Fordham. It's always more motivating and exciting to play teams that are in good form.
Our focus is always on our preparation, sharpness, mindset and unity. We believe in our process and if implemented well we will put ourselves in a position to compete, perform and win.
