So, to be quite honest with you, we weren’t up. We didn’t have enough energy,” Adams said, “Even though we won three-zero, the energy was not there.”

The Knights are now 5-3 on the season with a match at Parkside coming up on Friday, October 3. Coach Adams said that their fundamentals will be key in the big game, “The focus is to figure them out, you know, figure out what’s our best game plan going in, and really how to be better at the basics. How to do the fundamentals and do them over and over, repeatedly better than the other team does. Usually what happens is the team that does that is going to be the team that comes out on top.”
