Coach Briscoe's Thoughts

"As we prepare to make another showing at the conference tournament we are thankful to look back and see how far we have come.  Our goal is always the same.  We want to play to our fullest potential every time we step on the court.  That being said, with the growth I continually see, I know that we still have more to tap into.  We will open up with Menlo and they have proven over and over how consistent they are.  We will be doubling down with our efforts to be a team who sets the tone of the matches we play in and not those that simply respond."

Good luck Firestorm.
