Head Coach
Dan Rives stated, "We are incredibly excited to get this season underway, as we will learn a lot about our team in the early going. This team has been very tight knit since day one and it has been very evident in our team chemistry to this point. We have a good mix of returners that can lean heavily on their experience as freshmen, as well as a talented group of newcomers that provide a lot of competition on both sides of the ball. This group has had a very blue-collar work ethic throughout the fall and early spring, and we are ready to see our guys play another opponent."
