“It felt great. We were moving the ball fast, spread the floor and played UTSA basketball," Wallace said.
Roadrunner head coach Steve Henson said Saturday's win all started with a great week of practice.
“We had a really good week of preparation. We've just got to keep making progress and to make progress all week and to come out and play a pretty good game was a good feeling," Henson said.
