🗣️ "This season, in particular, is a little bit more special because I believe we have the firepower to make history for this program. However, it's going to be important that our athletes, coaches, and staff keenly focus on keeping everybody healthy and focused and disciplined in this long six-month season that we are about to get started with." - Chris Woods, head coach
