Spartan Head Coach Jason Retzlaff Quote
"We have a very inexperienced team and it can be daunting going up against larger scholarship colleges. But we had a lot of good moments in the two days and showed potential. I thought our players were mentally into it as we bounced back from some tough holes. If we can keep up that mentality this team will have a great opportunity to improve throughout the year."
