2024 OUTLOOK

”​​This years team will have some great senior leadership, but will be relying on a talented, but inexperienced group of underclassmen to fill out the team. There are only 3 returning players that started games from a season ago and we will need the younger players to be ready to compete at a high level to get us where we want to go.” - Tom Borrell, Head Coach
