Head coach and GM Ryan Donald was pleased with how the team came together over the course of the season.

“It’s been a good year with our group. It’s had its highs and its lows, certain phases where we were learning about one another as teammates and what types of roles we needed guys playing and buying into to have team success,” he said.

“As we’ve gone over the course of the season, I feel we certainly made some strides and continued to grow and develop as a group of individuals.”
