QUOTES
Overall Jayhawk’s performance and the battle with Texas Tech …
“Obviously, the first two sets we were good defensively and we had balance offensively. Texas Tech wouldn’t go away and they caught fire offensively in the third set and it became a dog fight throughout the fourth set.”
Â
On having a week to prepare for Texas …
“It’s a great opportunity against a great team that plays really good at home. It will be a challenge and we have a week to prepare. I like were our team is at and how they are committed to getting a little better each day.”
