We are preparing for the second round of the play-offs. The goal is to do everything faster, review good habits and play man on man defense in our end. We are playing a team that doubled our goals this season; so we have to be great on defense and make them play defense against us. They only lost 6 games all season but we were 2-3 against them and two of the losses were by one goal.
