FROM THE COACH:
We had a good start to our season with a win against ACC. We haven’t had much practice so starting out with a win is a positive for us. We also had a good start against Brandon but fatigue and a lack of discipline with fouls cost us. We’re going to have a good team this year and it’s going to be a lot of fun. - Joey Passi

PLAYER’S VIEW:
"Was good to be back together with the guys. Showed some positives for the start of the season. Rough ending against BU but overall pretty good." - Giovanni Benetiz

"This weekend showed that we can compete with every single team in this league. Even with the overall lack of futsal experience in our squad, we were relentless in creating lots of scoring opportunities and causing chaos for opposing teams. There was just no finishing touch. We lacked fitness and defensive structure but as the season goes on we will only improve, both as individuals and as a team." - Austin Blackwell

NEXT UP: University of Saint Boniface
DATE: January 18
LOCATION: Winnipeg, MB
