Honestly, I'm not discourage by the 0-4 start. Every team out there will lose more than 4 games this season. I realize 4 games in 5 nights against these caliber of opponents, some with hyped up home openings, would be a lot for any team to handle, let alone an undermanned team with a brand new squad. That said... This team will win a fair share,if not a lot of games this year once they get everyone back. They are truly a tough match up based on these last two games. They were just too worn out to finish them the 4th quarters strong. Some rest and a few more practices together should see them post some impressive wins over the next six games. Especially, if they can compete for 4 quarters instead of 3. They are definitely tough and energetic, if not smooth and polished... and a bit clumsy. But I see the potential for this year to make noise. _________________ Blood, sweat, tears,
We dripped all three just to get here.
No longer will I wake up and my dreams just vanished.
It’s staring right at me, I must take advantage.

There's that positivity. Outside of Byron's practices, health will be key.
