SNYDER PERSPECTIVE

The Indoor League Championships for us are kind of like midterms. We want to do well, and we want to win, but it's more of a measurement of where we are as we head into the second half of the season. Overall, I'm pumped about where we're at. Our key people really carried a lot of weight in the team scores, and we saw a lot of stellar progress all throughout the rest of the team. I'm thankful for this team and how they've encouraged and loved on each other this season. Now the focus shifts to indoor nationals in a couple weeks as we look to take a great crew up to South Dakota.
