Quote of the day
This quote is from Wolfpack guard Diamond Johnson discussing the impact of the Reynolds Coliseum crowd on the Wolfpack’s win over the Fighting Irish.
“I think they kind of knew that we needed a clap,” Johnson said. “We needed it because they went on their little run. I know they probably was a little anxious, but they fired us up and stuff, so the fans [are] definitely a big part of why we win a lot at home.”
