HEAR FROM THE HAWKS COACH:
Head Women's Basketball Head Coach Matt Svehla on the afternoon:
"We battled back and took the lead in the fourth quarter, but we just didn't make enough plays down the stretch," Svehla said. "We made too many mistakes today and we need to clean that up. We had a great chance to tie the game, but the putback just rimmed out. We will head into the break and come back ready to battle in the second semester."
UP NEXT:
The Hawks will have the next two weeks off before taking on No. 1 Kirkwood Community College at 1 p.m. on Saturday, January 6 in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
