Fresh off three consecutive national championships, the Warhawks are more focused and determined than ever.

"Our strength and conditioning process has been going very well as we prepare for the upcoming season," said Dan Price, the team's head coach. "The team is very connected and on top of things, so we're in a place where positive priorities are set and goals are ready to be achieved."

Returning veterans are making it a point to help freshmen understand the plays and terminology of the game, showing their own leadership skills while creating new leaders in the process.

The Warhawks compete in their first tournament on campus Nov. 21-22 at Kachel Fieldhouse

"Our team has had some very successful past years, but that doesn't make us arrogant," Price said. "We're looking at every day and every game not as a championship opportunity, but as a way for individual and collective improvement."
