Furman Head Coach Ron Smith:

"They've beaten us eight straight. It was very good for us to put some runs on the board. I cannot give Elliot Warford enough credit. He's a good competitor and we played good defense behind him. We made one error but other than that we made good defensive plays. I was also really pleased with our approach at the plate tonight."

"Warford going eight innings really helped us. deGruy could pitch tomorrow. Greenville native Ben Carlson will start for us tomorrow."

Furman's Elliot Warford:

"I was ready to go back out for the ninth, but my pitch count was high. We have a lot of capable arms that could end the game. I felt confident in them."

"I knew I had to throw up as many zeroes as I could as fast as I could. Luckily the coaches had faith in me."

"Our whole team was ready to go tonight."
