“It’s fun to see players that have been here for four years, their growth is tremendous,” coach Lehnhart said. “A player like Ryan Thibodeau, so into it and wanted to be a starter, and by senior year he had done that, he’s playing a lot of minutes…And of course it’s fun to coach players like Kai and Amir that have tremendous talent and to see them develop that and have it show on the bigger stages of the big moments is always fun.”

“Kellen Chester has been part of the program day in and day out for four years and he is just such a tough player. He’s really in a lot of ways the heart of our team in terms of effort. He just never quits…Then you get a player like Owen Rumsey. Started as a goalkeeper and switched to the field partway through. Changed positions, went from attacker to defender. He was trying to find his place, and boy has he. He has had a tremendous season. And like Ryan, it’s fun to see his dreams come to fruition and have him have so much success at the end.”
