ANYTHING ELSE YOU’D LIKE TO SAY ABOUT TEAM, SEASON
We graduated 10 seniors and 7 starters from last season, and although it is hard to replace that much production, I am pleased with how our players have responded and stepped up to the challenge. I like the growth our defense has made throughout the preseason and we have returned attacking talent that will allow us to push the attack more this season.
