Q: How has the program changed since your freshman year?

A: The program has changed a lot since we have had a new coaching staff. Our coaching staff has brought a different style and coaching capabilities to our team. They like to focus more on technical training and organizing a new formation based on the strengths and weaknesses we have. Another thing I have noticed that has changed is our desire and talent we have to win. We knew we were a good team my freshmen year but over the years we have shown our great ability to come out and upset teams and show everyone what mizzou soccer is all about.

A: The Big Twelve is a very tough conference, but we have the talent and team to win the Big Twelve.We know know how important conference games are and I know we will put all our hard work from practice into those games and come out and show people what we can accomplish.

Q: What's one thing that you're going to miss about this years seniors?

A: The seniors this year are very important people on our team. They have put so much time and effort into this program that it's going to be hard for them to leave.They have built this team for four years and are leaving us with better knowledge and excitement for the game. They all have different personalities that allowed these couple of years with them to be fun, interesting, and a great learning experience. The number one thing I will miss about them is there love and passion for the game and their teammates.They were always there for us.
