HOME OPENER
The decks are reshuffled. The stage is set. This Saturday at 7:30 p.m., the 2023 championship season will disappear into memory and become a lasting star atop the crest as the Rising community comes together once again to forge a second championship season.
“In order for us to be successful as the reigning champions, we’re going to need as much strength in numbers as we can possibly get,” said Rising Head Coach Danny Stone. “When we compete, we need to compete as a whole club, a whole community. We spoke about this a lot through the playoffs. The collective spirit, the collective unit we formed together… I certainly felt we had strength in numbers then. We were fighting as an army, not just 11 players on the field.”
