QUOTING HEAD COACH DREW FITZGERALD
"It's been a nearly annual tradition to play Texas State, even after they left the Southland conference.  It's a game our players are always excited to play.   We get a few injured players back for minutes this match so hopefully the excitement of nearing full strength for the first time is enough to help us secure a road win."
