Coach’s Outlook for 2022: “We lost a large senior class in ’21 and now have strong, but small, senior and junior classes this year. Those classes will be imperative in accomplishing our goals to reload and to continue to build on the progress the team has made in the past years. Our early practices have shown great leadership and buy-in from the upperclassman, as well as from the young players who got experience for us last year. We want to leverage that to instill a great culture and competitiveness that will help us be a better team come May as well as a better team in future years.”
