SEIFFERT PERSPECTIVE
- We really are proud of our teams effort today. Spring Arbor is a very well coached team and a strong side so it was definitely nice to get a result. We have a lot of growth that we need to continue to focus on to get where we want to be, but this was a good step in the right direction. We'll rest up the rest of this weekend and get back out on the training grounds on Monday.
