What are your expectations for your team this year?
To have a strong start and finish. We are young and I want us to keep lifting each other up and build a strong bond amongst each other.

What does your offense need to improve on from last year? *(Please let us know the keys about your team on offense. What are your keys to having a successful year?) *
Control the bar more & make more explosive plays. Some keys for us would be get the ball in the hands of our “playmakers” and let them make plays.

What does your defense need to improve on from last year * *
Force more turnovers& make more plays.

Players we should keep an eye on?
Daniel Gardee,
Khavon Walker,
Xavier Irizarry,
Jaheim Counts,
Saahir Strong-Teagle
