Thoughts from Coach Briscoe

"With a number of hiccups on our travels out to San Diego I was glad to see that we had enough determination to still play a consistent game.  We have been able to move the ball around a little more these last few matches and that has created opportunities for the team as a whole to succeed.  We are excited for our match with Vanguard tomorrow and we are looking forward to the battle."
