"We have a lot of talented veterans returning, as well as some talented recruits". Stated Co-owner Ann Bagala
"Mini Camp is where we start to see who wants to play twelve". Stated Offensive Coordinator, Mark Ring. "Getting all of this talent is great, but along with that comes raised expectations, it falls to the coaches now" Added Ring.
