Coach Koning's Thoughts"We are looking forward to playing our last two home matches of the season. We have an opportunityto finish strong and set ourselves up for a couple of tough conference matches the following weeks. More than anything else, I want the seniors to go out on a positive note. They have been through a lot this year and they have handled themselves very well and set a good example for the team. They are great people and deserve the best."
