It’s a great win for us. We beat a really good basketball team,” Matta said. “But as I told the guys, we’ll celebrate this win, then get ready for Eastern Illinois, then we’ve got a heck of a two weeks ahead of us coming up.”That two-week stretch features games vs. No. 17 Houston and No. 11 Wisconsin, then its first two Big East game against No. 5 Marquette and No. 25 UConn.
