HEAD COACH BRANDON BONILLA'S COMMENTS 

•  "It was a great performance to end our home season here. You know, going into the game we didn't know if we'd get any more games, so it was a fantastic way to see out the senior class at home." 
•  "It puts us at double digit wins for the first time since 17 and only the second time in 15 years. So, it's a really good step for the guys in the program." 
• "We're all together as a team and this team as a full 34 is unbelievable."
