LAST TIME OUT

WHAT COACH JONES IS SAYING
 
On beginning the LSC slate: "Everyone is going to be out to win and not just win but compete. That's the first thing we are going to have to do (compete). If you're not going out there to compete and really fight, you're not trying to win."
 
On what to look for on Wednesday: "Just lessons learned. We played a challenging schedule for a reason. We need to make sure we are focused and we understand what worked and what hurt us a little bit and get rid of those things."
