Nate Erickson

“He’s given it all he’s got despite having some really messed up knees. And, I hear he can throw a 90 mph fastball so I wouldn’t want to be in the batter’s box against him either.”

DURRELL SUMMERS
“He’s just really stepped up. He’s been the most consistent player in the tournament out of any team. He’s coming in clutch and it’s a big turn around from his inconsistencies during the season. He’s looking to do big things.”
Miguel Joaquin

“In the tournament he (has) stepped up when Lucas went out, and he’s been raining threes all over the place.”
Meagan Hill
Hospitality business junior
“He’s been dominating throughout our region. With Kalin (Lucas) out, he’s has stepped up tremendously — he’s been insane.”
Michael Endregaard
Marketing junior
RAYMAR MORGAN
“It’s his senior year and he’s been through a lot. He’s really blowing up for the Final Four and he’s like Suton last year: A senior stepping up big time in the tournament. Plus, I have his jersey.”
Eric Phillips
Urban and regional planning sophomore
“I feel that he is very aware off the game and makes good decisions. He knows when to score and when to draw a foul.”
Alon Albalak
Kinesiology junior
KORIE LUCIOUS
“He’s been the hero with that buzzer beater against Maryland and the sweet shot when he did the spin move against Northern Iowa. As long as he keeps the turnovers down, he’ll be my favorite player.
Dan McClintic

“He hit the clutch in the Maryland game. He’s been stepping it up the whole tournament and so have the other guys, but he’s been really fun to watch.”

“I think he’s done a really great job in this tournament especially against Maryland when he sank the three so we could win it”
