WORDS WITH WARHAWKS

"I want to recognize how well Coach Greg Long's team performed tonight," interim head coach Steve Kenner said. "I am extremely proud of our team and the performance we displayed in today's win. I thought we played with a lot of determination to be defensively better for the entire game. Everyone was locked in and when MC tried to make a run, we kept our composure and did not stray away from the game plan. I believe we have a chance to be really good this season. With hard work and determination success will continue to follow!"
