Thoughts from Coach Rutter

"We looked a lot more like ourselves today.  Was not pretty, but a good team win with good contributions from all that played.  I think we were a little worn out from a couple weeks of travel, a few injuries, and really didn't get to practice a whole lot the two weeks prior to Westmont. I think we slipped fundamentally as a result.  We were a little better today... Better defensively and better shot selection."
