Coach Outlook: "This season will be a year of learning; learning how to take pride in their work, overcome adversity, how to respect the game, and play the game the right way. Everyday we strive to become 1% better, which comes with our drive this off-season in working with Intent. Process your work mentally and the desired physical product will happen.
