"This was a good win for us," Barons coach Sean Donovan remarked post-game.  "We knew that we had to play all-out today.  Matt Liedel led all scorers today, and played extremely well on both ends of the floor, and he was afterwards named on the all-tournament team.  Mike Feuz and John Moore played well for us off the bench, and it was an all-around team effort."

The Barons' next contest is at home against AMCC opponent Penn State-Behrend this Tuesday at 8 p.m.
