Washington men’s coach Mike Hopkins met with the media Wednesday to discuss last week’s 91-87 win over Division II Saint Martin’s and Friday’s regular-season opener against Belmont.
Here’s everything he had to say.
(What do you want this team to be?) “I want to be great defensively and I want to fight on the court. Those are the things you can control, and with that play together. You can’t control missing shots, you control trying to get better shots and making sure the right guys are getting shots. The most important thing is that you’ve got to take pride in defense, and you’ve got to do it together.
