Really like being the game of the week, but we are making a lot of changes in this export. I hope the team can mesh to play a good Shreveport team. I think the key to this one will be if we can protect Fisk or not.

I had to make a few game plan adjustments for this game...I like our chances, just have to stick to the game plan.
