COACH JON GIN’S COMMENTS
It was a great, gritty team win. We didn’t shoot the ball that well, but our defense really kept us in it. We were able to force some key turnovers late and find enough easy buckets to pull it out. I’m happy that we could honor PJP with a big-time dub. Shout out to The Conspiracy for providing a great home-court advantage. We really used their energy to propel us to a key dub against our rivals.
UP NEXT
The Ravens will travel to Richmond on Saturday at 1:00 p.m. to take on the Earlham Quakers (4-11, 0-8) in Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference (HCAC) action.
