In their fifth-straight win, the Wildcats topped Xavier on the road 72-47 last Sunday, improving to 11-9 overall and 6-3 in Big East Conference play. Despite early losses, the mindset Head Coach Harry Perretta instills in the team culture is to always stay positive.
“We have kept our morale and our character very high,” senior guard Karlie Crispin said. “I think that’s one thing that has kept us together as a team through the bad and the good. Now that we are on this winning streak, practice is more enjoyable than it was before.”
With a young team with six freshmen on the roster, the team’s camaraderie has shown to be a vital part to their recent success.
