Fun fact Drexel’s WBB program is way more accomplished than Pitt’s

Donahue on running a 13-man rotation: “If we’re playing the way we can play defensively, we’re going to go deep into our bench. One of our best talents is the ability to pressure the ball and go on the transition. If we’re going to do that, we’ve got to play a lot of guys.”

Donahue on Deuce Jones’ struggles: “Deuce has been unbelievable since we’ve been here, he had a hard night for whatever reason. But I put him in towards the end because I trust him. He’s still growing into it but I can tell you he’s been our best player in every way.”

Donahue on Glover’s performance: “Glover had a hard situation where, he comes here and the coach who recruited him is gone. But what we saw tonight is literally what he does everyday. He completes hard, locked in nine rebounds and he’s obviously extremely talented.”
