"I'm pleased the guys fought and competed the way we did this afternoon.  Rockhurst is a good team and their staff has that program trending upward.  We knew it was going to be a battle and we'd have to earn the result today.  With that being said, we can't keep painting ourselves into a corner with that lapse in the first half.  The boys showed a ton of character fighting our way back to within striking distance heading into halftime and took that momentum into the second half.  I'm proud of the boys, they earned a win against a good team today." Said Levesque after the win. 

The Grizzlies will next be in action on April 17th, when they take on the Colorado Mesa University Mavericks in Grand Junction, for a WILA match up. The game is slated to begin at 7:00 pm.
