The Spartans now enter the second round of tournament play, which is the round that they were eliminated in last season by TCU. Jeff Hosler thinks that some of that postseason experience from last year can help the team this year.
“We’ve been through this,” Hosler said. “Now we have a little bit of seasonal stamina after last year, going on the run that we did and playing into the second round, so I think our team knows (how) to handle that. I think we’re rested and refreshed and ready to go for this. And I think that experience last year of falling short but having an incredible performance gives our team a lot of confidence that we can put ourselves in a position to win on Thursday.”
