ALBION, Mich. -- The final doubleheader of the semester was a roller coaster in the best way. Despite the cold temperatures at The Held in Albion, the team delivered strong rides on quality horses against great competition. Placings aside, the Bulldogs showed outstanding unity and cohesion throughout the day. From a coaching perspective, this was the Adrian's strongest competition to date.
The team will be back in action on Sunday, January 25 at Michigan State University as they continue their journey.
