ON THE BRINK: COACH DEPPA's BIGGEST KEYS TO THE GAME
"USC Lancaster is better than their record. They have a few key players that can change the game at any moment. If we overlook this game in anyway, we could very well put ourselves in the same position we put ourselves in at Patrick Henry CC. The 2nd half versus Spartanburg on Tuesday was great, but we now have USC Lancaster to close the regular season, at home, under the lights at Legion. I am sure our players will be amped up for this game."
