“Our kids played hard but I think we just ran out of gas in the end.  We battled and playing with only 8 we really started to wear down in the end but credit to our kids they never quit fighting.  I’m excited to get back in the gym because we are really starting to figure some things out and tonight we got a ton of experience that we were lacking.  We definitely don’t enjoy losing but this experience is invaluable to our over mission and goals for March.” - Coach Trevithick
