Wright's Words
"I felt like FGCU made the necessary adjustments defensively and offensively today. They did a better job than us at the service line and we were a step behind defensively. We've had a great week of volleyball and we're competing at a high level. We'll rest up a bit and then focus on where we need to improve the most."

Up Next
UNF's upcoming schedule is to be announced pending scheduling adjustments within the conference.
