FINAL RESULTS
HEAD COACH WILL BREWER
"I'm proud of the effort this week and the desire to compete that this team demonstrated this fall season. Today was just a bit frustrating as we hit the shots and missed a few in spots which led to a few too many big numbers. We will rest, recover and come out hungry in January! We had one win, one third and a top-six finish when we didn't have our best stuff this fall which builds character. We have high hopes for the spring!"
UP NEXT
The Bisons will resume its season in February at the Sea Best Invitational on Feb. 3-4 in Jacksonville, Florida.
