Coach's Corner
Head Coach
Daniel Finn said, "Great effort by the boys today as they came out with a lot of energy from the start of the match and used it throughout. We have been struggling lately to play a complete match but today we were able to and it was great to see.
Â
I am very proud of the boys to win a fourth straight Sun Conference Championship. Winning consistently is one of the hardest things to do in sports and to win four straight is a great accomplishment for these guys and the program. Now we need to shift our focus on a tough week coming up."
