The captains, Joshua Fisher (12), Sawyer Sachen (12), and Steele Arlasky (12) all said the same thing about being moved up a whole division. They all felt that they and the team were up for the challenge and facing tougher opponents.

When asked about how the team prepared for CIF and the tougher teams, the captains said that the team trained well, went over plays, watched film and much more, just to name a few.

But each one prepared themselves differently.

            Arlasky stated, “Personally, I prepared for CIF just like any other game. Get the right amount of training, recovery, and sleep play a huge role into my performance on the field. 

           Sachen stated that, “I prepared the same way I always prepare just one game at a time and having as much fun as possible.”
