playing in a conference

Playing competitive soccer can teach us a lot of lessons and we learned one on Saturday. Every team in our conference is going to be prepared and highly motivated to play FSU. We view that as a measure of respect that we've earned over the years but it also means that if all our players are not fully focused, playing well, and playing with confidence, we're just not going to get results. Several teams in the AMCC are talented and athletic enough to compete with FSU and Behrend has always been one of them. Anytime we aren't prepared to out-play AND out-work our opponents AND believe we will score and win - an outcome like Saturday's is the consequence. Of course, our challenge now is to learn and apply this lesson.
