Tjia Talk: "It will be good to get back to our home courts. The last couple of matches at home were rained out, so it has been a while. Eastern Kentucky is a very strong team that was picked to win its conference, therefore they are very likely an NCAA tournament team. It will be a very close and exciting match, and we know we will have to compete at our best. I hope our fans will come out support us."
