Northeastern State Coach Chase Wooten
Initial statement…
"Northwest Missouri is wildly improved this year. In the first half they did a good job arriving at the ball and making it difficult for us. We had plenty of chances in the second half we just didn't take advantage of them. We didn't make them pay the price which is something we need to do."
 
On making adjustments…
"We just need to start getting things to connect. Defensively, I have very few complaints, we look good. We just need someone to step up and start scoring consistently. We're a young team and we're still working to find who plays the best with who."
