Cougars continue conference play on the road
HOUSTON – The Cougars will continue conference play when they head east to first take on UConn on Oct. 10, before facing Temple on Oct. 13.
QUOTES FROM COACH
"These are two games that will be like every conference game, they're going to be a battle. But, if we show up mentally ready for 90 minutes we can win each of these games. If we don't, we can drop them. So, it's that time of the year. It's been a tough season, result-wise. We need to dig in, we need to grind, we need to trust the process and just go for it. We've got nothing to lose." said Head Coach Diego Bocanegra.
