The Word On Campus | “This game, we had a lot on the line for us. We wanted this win. Not only for the people in the crowds but for the people who couldn’t be with us like Christopher Garcia, who got injured, our coaches who also couldn’t be here with us, and other key players that are now ineligible.” Linebacker Eric Heng (#25) said. “Just super proud of the team and that we were able to make a bit of history by winning compared to previous years. We still have a good amount of the season left, so I hope we get to shock people by getting more wins.”
Our Thoughts | The boys continue to improve and impress as each game comes and goes. The homecoming game was indeed a show of that and their teamwork and game plan continue to define itself. However, as we continue on to the rest of the season, we do hope they don’t get too cocky, which can ultimately be the cause of their downfall. Still, we hope the boys the best and look forward to their upcoming games.
