I really felt there was a lot of improvement, but it’s still early in the season. There are still a lot of things that we need to improve. Our goal is to improve every game and so far I feel like we are doing that.”

Trent Cleland led the Tigers with 11 points and seven rebounds.

Taylor Rhudy finished the night with 10 points.
