Coach’s outlook: “We are continuing to build our Program so that it can be a contender in the strong Central League. Our pre-season has gone well and we are excited to see how we stack up as games begin. We return some strong players in each position and have others really stepping up to fill new roles. Our offense has improved and is beginning to gel. Our defense is starting to play well together as we have had to replace half of our starting defense due to graduation losses. Our attack rides hard and face-offs could be a strength for us. After graduating three 2x captains last year, other players are developing into leaders and filling those roles.”
