I don't know if we can overtake the traditional conference powers - like Chelmsford and Haverhill - but I think some opponents are going to under-estimate us and we'll surprise a few teams along the way.

We wouldn't want supplies to be left outside and get damaged or destroyed, ... We encourage people to drop their donations off during business hours so we can make sure they are safe.

Maybe running against Chelmsford and Haverhill early - and on our home (3.1-mile) course - will help us.

The MVC is a very strong conference with an earned reputation.

Both Courtney and Maggie are real competitors - and we expect them to have a friendly, heated and healthy rivalry.

We're fairly well-balanced and we'll hold our own against most teams.

The younger kids still have to prove themselves - but again we're hoping to surprise some teams and equal or better last year's record.

Not everybody can tolerate that. Some already have issues with their legs, and we can't put cuffs on their legs. We perform an ultrasound test on their legs.

We've had some great pre-season workouts and hopefully it carries over when the dual meets begin.
