Team Thoughts | “I was really mad before the game because we shouldn’t have lost to them in the first game but the anger was also a good thing, we all play better when we’re mad,” third baseman Marvin Rivera said. “The home run felt great, and it was even better that I hit one against Canoga Park, just to show them who’s better.”
Our Thoughts | Walking into the game, the Wolves displayed a determined attitude. Following their loss against Canoga Park, they practiced the next three days to improve on the mistakes they made during that game. The practice clearly paid off because they made minimal mistakes and were able to hit two home runs against the Hunters. The Wolves have a very bright future ahead of them, so make sure to go out to support the team.
