Wittenberg coach Bill Brown on Marietta: “They’re very similar to the team we played last year. They had two prime guys who didn’t play against us last year because of injuries. One is gone. They lost a real key player in Kevin Knab, a post guy, but they made a commitment to playing 10 people, which causes less of a falloff in experience from one year to the next. They’re benefiting from it.”
