We are striving for improvement next semester. As long as we keep making steady improvement, that will be our key. We need to never stop improving. We have set the bar pretty high for ourselves this semester with how many teams that made the playoffs and how well we did. We need to push a little harder next semester to make it one step further. We are excited for next semester and moving forward."
