Excerpt from the Dayton Daily News

Wright State. Wrong vibe.
“I thought there was an emotional undercurrent to our team that I did not like….I did not like!” WSU coach Clint Sargent said in a quick, but pointed assessment Wednesday night after his Wright State team lost a 12-point lead and was beaten by Youngstown State, 80-70, at the Nutter Center.
Point guard Keaton Norris, one of two players made available to the press after the closed doors of the locker room finally opened, also had a critical appraisal:
“I thought it was just an ‘us’ issue. It was an individual thing. I thought we all weren’t there. (Guys) were too into their own things, too worried about our own stats, whatever. It’s got to get better so this won’t happen again.”
Wright State has lost its last five games to Youngstown State, three of them at home.
This defeat — against a Penguins team that came into the Nutter Center, 6-5 — really hit a sour chord afterward.
