Chris Collins
On Northwestern’s performance: “We’re really excited about winning this game because of the respect we have for Dayton...The first 20 minutes...was probably the best half of basketball we’ve played on both ends...To Dayton’s credit, we knew they weren’t gonna give up...We just had to gut out those last eight minutes.
