COACH SCOTT GREVE'S COMMENTS
It was a true team victory. Before the match, we talked about how we've relied on the Holy Spirit to fill us and live through as a team! The guys lived that out in our match! It's one step closer to fulfilling our team goal. This team is living out our calling to reflect the glory of God.
