Coach Talk

Tommy Gufano's Team
These types of close victories can be paramount for team chemistry. Persevering through the toughest of times and triumphing in the face of adversity... expect the Tommy Gufano's Team locker room to really gel entering Week 2.
Hammerheads
Just one make on three field goal attempts? Seems like Zane Gonzalez might be kicking himself to the waiver wire after this effort... especially since Hammerheads needed every point possible in this tight matchup.
