Tyler Wahl (12 points), Steven Crowl (11 points), Connor Essegian (11 points), and Chucky Hepburn (10 points) all had success in that area. The team also made 13 three-pointers as a unit. Hepburn commented on the game following the victory.
“The competition’s way more physical out here,” said Hepburn. “You can play with your body a lot more, so that’s what we like. We like the physicality. We’re going to have a lot more lessons going into the season, and we’ll be able to face off against a lot more physical teams.”
