Washington Coach Mike Hopkins, Players Post-UNC Press Conference Transcript

Posted Mar 24, 2019
Mike Hopkins: "You get a chance to play Carolina, it's a pretty incredible opportunity. And they're just a really big team, really good shooting team. It seemed like when they missed they got the rebound. And you're not going to win too many games getting outrebounded by 24. Our kids kept fighting. Unfortunately we ran into a tough team tonight."
