Final Comments:
We are a young team loaded with juniors and sophomores. We have 4 returning starters from last years team. We are an athletic team with a lot of solid talent. We lost a ton of leadership from last years team and that will be very difficult to replace. We should compete for a CHL Championship and be competitive out of conference as well.
