Coach’s Comments:
We feel good, overall. No one was affected worse than us with COVID. We played only three games, all in a period of nine days and we had ten practices the whole year. We’re glad to have some semblance of a normal year. We’re experienced, but not much experience was gained, but we will have a chip on our shoulder.” – Head Coach Steve Scanlon
