Thoughts:

“We are excited about the upcoming season. The team has prepared well during the offseason and now into February. Our strength is in the experience we have returning from last season’s team which was exceptionally young. This is a close knit bunch of guys who have worked hard and as a coaching staff we are excited to see what is in store for us this season.” – head coach John Sparks
