COACH BELLEMAN SAYS…
"I am so proud of our team! The conditions were not ideal, and they just handled the situation and battled the whole game. We had great individual efforts from several guys, and guys stepping up at critical times. I encouraged the team to be ready for the moment when it comes in the box and Fabi was there and ready. Looking forward to getting ready for another big Cali trip next week!"
