Head Coach
Thiago Pinto shared, "Important win on the road. We are doing well in creating a lot of chances and need to be more clinical in and around the box. Great teamwork for the shutout and limiting the opponents' offensive actions. Time to push for more on developing on and off the field as we get ready to start a new cycle with league play."
The first Crossroads League Opponent that the Pilots will face are the Taylor Trojans. On Wed, Sept. 24th, the Pilots will travel to Upland, Ind. for a 7:00 PM kickoff in Turner Stadium.
