Well first and foremost, our veterans and coaching staff does a great job of keeping us down to Earth and motivated each and every week. We win as a team and lose as a team. We also are not afraid to call each other out. Rookies are held to high standard and are expected to play at a high level. Likewise, veterans are not safe from ridicule either. Veterans are expected to lead on and off the field. So to keep everyone disciplined we watch a lot of film and spend a lot of time together. We are always doing team activities and doing things to support one another. Whether that be doing charity work together or just positive reinforcement during competition. We also work on team communication a lot. We have specialist that come in and help us work on airing our issues and grievances so that when the pressure is on during the games we are able to calmly communicate with each other.
