QUOTABLES
Head Coach Keyton Wheelock
Texas St Preview: They have always been a well organized and well coached team. They have always been extremely tough to break down, which seems to be a key characteristic amongst teams this year. It is a struggle you aren't giving up a lot and not a lot have been scored this year. It is one of those that we have to look for ways to break through them and we have to stay patient on the ball and be clinical on our chances.
UP NEXT
-The results of Sunday's contest will determine the Warhawks status in regards to the conference tournament that will be held in Foley, Alabama.
