Head Coach Gus Argenal is proud of how his team continues to collect road wins early in the season.
 
"These early road wins are huge for us as a program," Argenal said. "As we continue to battle and handle adversity on the road only helps us continue to build confidence in one other. And we're going to need the confidence to finish out this road trip and as we begin CCAA play."

Jewels Sanders led the Hawks with 21 points and four rebounds off the bench. Jason Webster added 12 points and three rebounds for Holy Names.
