Once again, our managers did a fantastic job of preparing everything for our coaches and players! I have mentioned many times how important it is to put together a great student manager staff, and it appears we have assembled a top notch group! Not only do they do a fantastic job, but they seem to enjoy the work and one another. That makes such a huge difference. Tim and Benny do a GREAT job of working with the managers.
Other than the FIVE turnovers we committed yesterday, the day seemed to be perfect! The weather was awesome, we got to see a lot of people that stopped by to visit, and of course the outcome of the game.
We will practice Tuesday through Friday this next week preparing for the WSU Cougars, then we will get next weekend off. That is always nice!
