“I see this group pulling together as a team, and that’s a strength,” the head coach stated. “Teamwork is really important and you really have to see each other in the light of ‘I want my teammate to continue to improve and I want to improve’ and I’m seeing that so far.”

Looking at the task in front of them in the Cloverbelt- East, they may have some tough competition to deal with. Both the Loyal/Greenwood and Neillsville teams that went 11-1 in the conference last season will only be missing two seniors from their respective squads and Columbus Catholic also appears to potentially have a solid returning roster. If the co-op hopes to compete at the top of the conference, they will have to find the next gear to compete with these top teams, which they went a collective 0-6 against last season.

The varsity team’s first test is scheduled as a nonconference affair at Auburndale on Thursday, March 30. The Eagles were 11-9 last season and defeated the Colby/Abby squad 10-1 the last time the two clubs faced off. The start time for the game is set for 4:45 p.m.
