Baylor Head Coach Joey Scrivano on Baylor's match with Northwestern …
"Lots of credit to Northwestern. They have a tough team and fought hard from start to finish. We are making progress as a team, but it's not showing on the scoreboard yet. I'm proud of the way we are competing and staying positive through some tough losses. All the matters now is getting ready for a strong Illinois team on Sunday."
