TEAM BIO
Coach Kopkas on his 2019 team:
Having graduated 30 seniors in the last 3 seasons, our biggest obstacle will be our lack of experience. Our returning players have played under strong leadership and a winning culture. It is now their turn to continue that tradition. We will have to meld our few returners with a promising set of newcomers in a hurry as we will play a challenging schedule this season. We are extremely optimistic about our prospects this season, but there are some definite unknowns as of now.
