‘I’m not concerned about being 5-3, we are working hard and improving constantly however we need to improve our execution late in games as that was evident in both Milford and Stoney Creek,? said Head Coach Steve Emert. ‘We have now split win and loss with Stoney Creek.? (We) realize that only 10 points separate us from our 5-3 record from being 8-0.? We look forward to playing Bloomfield Hills.
The ladies will travel to Bloomfield on Friday. The game begins at 7 p.m.
