"Payton Hanson, Austyn Whitlatch, TC Smith, Kane Poad, Joseph Lawinger, Brett Hottmann and Trevor Wunnicke are all well worth mentioning as standing out. It was a great start to a long season for many of our athletes. I believe all our coaches are happy with where the teams are at right now but we do need to continue work hard and improve."
