The coaching staff noted that it was a great experience for the team to play a game with a group that sacrifices so much to protect the freedoms enjoyed in the United States.

The Cougars will play their first of two games in the Acropolis of Athens Tournament tomorrow at 9:15 p.m. in Athens (12:15 p.m. MT) against the host country Greece.
