WHAT THEY'RE SAYING
"We are excited about playing King's again," said Head Coach Tom Battaglia. "Once we lost to them, our goal was to get back to Wilkes Barre to play them in the postseason. Our team has put in a lot of work since the first time we saw them, so hopefully our efforts pay off. We need to be stronger at the end of our lineup. Guys like Tyler (Schacher) and Steven (Serras) have to come through for us if we have a shot. I think they are playing the best they have all season."
