Excited for our team moving in this weekend so we can get this 2018-2019 year going. It might be a new year but the expectations are the same, just with some new faces.

My condolences & prayers go out to the @ICTrackField and @ICTritons family on the passing of Denny Myers today. I worked for Denny the year prior to being named the head coach at MCC. I will always be in debt for the opportunity he gave me early in my career. He will be missed.

New locker rooms and field house are coming along nicely. Can’t wait to see the finished product in a few weeks.
