Coach Reinhard: “We have been lucky to gain some new talent on the boys team this year, and we expect improvement in the boys league and district team performances. We will have to wait and see just how much improvement will be made, but our focus is on developing the athletes and identifying where they perform best for our team this year. Some athletes show talent in many different areas, so it will be exciting to watch unfold. “
