"We are looking forward to another opportunity to compete this weekend. We know we are facing another good PAC-12 team," said head coach Dustin Hinson. "We learned a lot from our first match and we have been working on specific tactics that will build our competitiveness in these types of matches. The main goal is to improve upon our last outing and to empty the tank on court to find a way to come out on top. As in every match, I'm looking for all-out effort and good energy from the team."
