“”I always look forward to our indoor practice in February and March, so we can work on making some changes. I think with a few minor adjustments, our team, as always, will be ready for a run at the National Championships in Indiana,” said Head Coach Scott Moe. “We had two freshmen step in this fall, Sam Falk and Liz Strom, who provided a nice addition to the lineup. I look for our seniors to have a great spring, I know they will give it everything they’ve got.”
