"Overall, it was a solid season," said Head Coach Colby Newquist, "I know the student athletes know what they have to do to take us to another level for next season.  The sophomores will defintely be missed but the Freshmen now have a taste for success, and I look forward to them setting the bar high with expectations and hard work for 2022!"
