This will be the first time since 2016 that the team will be in the CCAA national tournament. The team won the silver medal in its last CCAA national championship. Although the team has been preparing all week, Hall says preparation has not been business as usual but the factors that make the tournament different from the regular season are external and out of their control. Hall says the team will rely on their skills and talent to carry them throughout the championship.

B次元官网网址淭he only things that are in their control are the skills and tactics weB次元官网网址檝e been working on all season. So in that sense, playing at nationals is no different than playing through the regular season,B次元官网网址 Hall says. The adjustments the team has made in preparation are strategic to the teams they are competing against in the tournament.
Although this will be HallB次元官网网址檚 first time coaching in a national championship he is no stranger to the national stage as he has competed in three national championships as an athlete. B次元官网网址淎lthough I have never coached at a CCAA championship, itB次元官网网址檚 an environment I am familiar with and comfortable in.B次元官网网址
