"We had a lot of success going inside tonight. I was proud of how the guys were sharing the ball as we assisted on 27 baskets," said head coach Dan Miller after the win. "After the fast start we had a little lull from not being solid and not taking care of the ball."
 
A Christian Seidl three-pointer would push the lead to 22 at the 10:33 mark, the largest lead of the first half for LETU. Seidl finished with 10 points and four rebounds.

In the second half LeTourneau shored up the turnovers only committing three in the final period and just nine in the game. The YellowJackets came into the game fourth in the nation in assist-to-turnover ratio at 1.63 and eighth in turnovers per game at 10.2.

"I was proud of the way we came back out the second half and responded and value the ball and finished our possessions," said Miller. "Now we need a great practice tomorrow as we have a very good team coming in here Saturday."
