2010 is Underway!

On August 18th, the Luther College Men's Soccer Team arrived in Decorah, anxiously awaiting the beginning of their 2010 campaign. An impressive group of first-year students has joined the talented group of returners to form the most talented team Luther has put together in years. Coach Garcia-Prats is excited about the potential of this 2010 team and is working hard to take the talent that exists and form the best team he has ever coached.
With two-a-day practices and fitness tests, pre-season is a physically taxing period for even the fittest of Luther Soccer athletes. The boys have shown resiliency, commitment, and a great desire to become better players and a better team, and have come to every session with energy and a burning to desire to win. They had a great effort in their first pre-season game against North Area Iowa Community College on Friday, August 20th, and hopefully it is a sign of things to come for the Norse.
Luther Soccer looks ahead to several more days of pre-season, as the questions get answered about how good the Norse can be this year. Their next test will come when Grinnell College visits Decorah for a rematch of last year's pre-season game on Friday, August 27th at 8:00 PM.
