HOUSTON HEAD COACH Rayner Noble
"This was a big win. If there is an at large bid out there for the regional, it is probably between us and TCU and this game could have a lot to do in where that goes."

On the Cougars hitting
"Thanos' home run helped ease the tension in the dug out and I think that Farrington's home run was really the telling blow."

HOUSTON FIRST BASEMAN Thanos Papavasiliou
On Playing ECU on Thursday
"It should be a good match up. We played them really tough at their place and now we have a shot at them here. Last time we played them it came down to a play here or a play there, or a hit here or a hit there and we came up a bit short. We just have to come out and play."
