THOUGHTS FROM COACH BLAKEMORE

• "We were not our normal team most of the game.  So many errors happened tonight.  Hoping this was a good wake up call that we cannot just expect to win games without giving it our all.  Got one more regular season game that is conference so expecting a different team by Saturday."
