FROM THE COACH:
Ending our preseason against such good teams is an honor and a challenge. Going so far away on the road to face two NAIA teams is not easy, managing the travel and time on the road was hard for our team. I’m really impressed with how the players handled the fatigue and pressure of these two games. Obviously we have a lot to work on to become stronger and being able to compete at this level but I saw a lot of encouraging aspects in the midst of two tough losses. - Pierre Dubreuil

PLAYER’S VIEW:
This past weekend was good learning experience for the team. As our preseason came to an end, we faced some tough teams that exposed some our weaknesses and strengths as a team and individually. I'm looking forward to see how we adjust ourselves as we start the regular season this weekend against Red River. - Glenn Pronteau
