After the game, Head Coach Billy Livezey had this to say about his Knights, "I am very proud of the way this team responded tonight. This was Spurgeon basketball through and through for 40 minutes. First time all season where I believe we played for 40 minutes. It was tough, gritty, relentless, play the right way basketball. Culture eats strategy for breakfast and our Faithful culture tonight showed with how we competed. KCC is a very good team and to get a region win on the road against a team like them is very important at this point in the season." The Knights will try to build on this win as they head into regional play in the 2nd semester.
