Head Coach Andy Murray

On tonight's game overall...

"I thought it was very physical game that had a lot of energy in it from the onset. Michigan is obviously a tremendous team and they came in here and played very strong. I thought our team was much better tonight. We were focusing on what we needed to get done. We had more speed and tempo than last night, and from there we found a way to get some goals."

On the second period/puck possession...

"I think our puck possession was good. We make good decisions and make it difficult for other teams to play offense against us. I've always said that we want to play the first twenty seconds of every shift in their zone so their too tired when they're on offense. They're a great team and I'm sure we're going to face them down the road this season."

On performance by the younger players...

"We need those young guys stepping up because they're no longer young guys. They've been here for over twenty games now, and we expect them to be able to contribute and play hard. What I like about their game tonight is that they played smart."

On the series overall...

"We've played some good hockey. We went in to Bemidji and played two strong games, and against Lake Superior we played strong as well. Then we went to Bowling Green and played hard there, and ended up losing one there but coming back and getting a win here. If we look at our games overall, last night was probably our weakest game but we found a way to elevate our play. We knew our opponent would be better, and we would need to match that."

On special teams this weekend...

"We didn't like our first power play for sure, but that's why power play numbers change over the course of the year."

On playing Michigan at home...

"Bottom line is that we want to be playing home playoff games, and if that's Michigan then that's fine. The energy in this building has been like that all year, but when Michigan comes to town it's an exciting time for us. We know the caliber of their players and the program they have. I think our fans were excited. Our fans were tremendous all weekend. I think our Lawson Lunatics were out in full force, and in a classy way as well from what I heard. They just mean so much to us."

Junior Forward Shane Berschbach

On sweeping Michigan at home...

"It's huge. It's definitely awesome for our school and our hockey program. The battle we had to bring both nights shows what this meant to us. Our guys really stuck with it, and did something big for our school."

On team's performance at this point in the season...

"I think we're moving forward. We weren't as good as we needed to be last night, and we knew we needed to step it up tonight. I think we did that tonight. We had contributions from all over. We are moving forward really strong from this series."

On Hargrove's first goal tonight...

"He's a great player and he's going to the net hard and he's getting rewarded."

On his possession in the second period...

"I think we had a better start then we did last night which was a big help. We got down one goal in the second, but we came back hard and responded."

Freshman Forward Colton Hargrove

On his first goal tonight...

"First Cichy made a great play and got the puck out of the zone. Then Pitt saw me coming up the middle and gave me a nice pass. It's just kind of an instinct now that when the puck is going across, you want to send the puck back the other way. I ended up tapping it in with the help of Mike and Josh."

On his performance this weekend...

"I'm feeling pretty confident. I've talked to all the coaches and they told me to be physical and make plays, and be smart at the same time. I played my game. I got some hits and crashed the net and was able to get some goals."

On Cichy's addition to the line...

"He definitely adds something. He's played college hockey before; Josh and I are freshmen so he adds that experience. He's physical and sees the ice well. He can find me and Josh whenever we're open."

On sweeping Michigan..

"It's pretty surreal. It's the first time that we've swept them at home since 1986. It's an awesome feeling. Coach Facca came in afterwards pretty pumped up. I know the seniors are excited; it's a great feeling and I'm happy for them. It's just awesome."
