We were very interested in making this happen, but we just couldn't do it. All of us will survey kids in the spring and early fall.

Coach Owen worked with us very well during the season. He made sure the kids got their lifts in.

It just became real clear that we were looking at eight to 12 girls, and we didn't feel comfortable that we could make it go (for next season).

It's not as easy as just throwing a recreational team together. We all fund our hockey differently.

Hopefully this will kind of get us going a little bit.

In this situation, I see us as the underdog. A lot of people are doubting us.
