"Quincy took it to us in our first meeting," said Rockhurst coach Drew Diener. "We competed, but didn't execute a great defensive game plan. They have a great inside game and also very good shooters. They are tough to stop. It takes great focus on every possession. We are still fighting for postseason positioning, which makes each game very meaningful."
