“Everyone understands
the importance of this game and what’ll happen if we lose.” This is what the
Varsity Captain, Dominic Prezioso, said when asked about the game against
Belvidere this Saturday. The North Warren Patriots will be faced against the
Belvidere Seaters in a crucial match for both sides. The game is scheduled to
start at 6:30pm at the home of the Patriots.
The Patriots are searching for their first win
of the season against the Seaters to improve to a 1-3 record. When team
captain, Dominic Prezioso, was asked how the team felt about the opposition he
said, “We have to work really hard and give it one-hundred percent, they seem
to be decent, and we are both hungry for a win.” This game is vital to the
team’s chances of making states this year. If they fail to beat Belvidere they
will fall to 0-4, with an arduous schedule ahead of them. With many teams
doubting the North Warren Patriots, as they lost many key players from last
year, they are looking to make a statement.
Although the team has
struggled in the first stretch of games this season, they are still trying to
keep their heads up. When questioned about the team’s morale, Dominic responded
with, “Right now we are bummed about being 0-3, but this game could be what we
need.” He continued with, “This could change our season completely. We are
hungry for that win.” The team has learned from its past fixtures and are ready
to turn the season around. In his final statement, Prezioso said, “Everyone
understands the importance of this game and what will happen if we lose.
Everyone knows what needs to be done on Saturday and we can’t wait.” The team
is ready to transform its season into a great one with a win against Belvidere.
Both teams are prepared
for an intense game this Saturday. The Patriots are ready to turn things around
and are looking to make a statement to all their doubters. Although they have
had a rough start, they are set to put up a fight and get the win. Let’s Go
Patriots!
