A note from the desk of Coach Cooper

October 15^th nears closer and closer as we get ready for our first official practice of the 2010-2011 season. The guys have been working extremely hard in the weight room and in individuals to prepare themselves for the first practice. We have been battling a few minor injuries, but nothing that our athletic trainer Chris Dane cannot handle. Chris is the assistant athletic trainer at WT, and has been great with our team. He works extremely hard to help our players prevent injury, and also assists our players to make a speedy recovery if they do get injured. He has been a tremendous asset to our program over the last couple of years!

Our schedule has been finalized for the 2010-2011 season, and is posted on gobuffsgo.com. We are very excited about opening up our season with the South Central Shootout in Bartlesville, Oklahoma in a conference challenge with teams participating from the Lone Star Conference, MIAA, and the Heartland Conference. We will open the year up against Emporia of the MIAA and Newman of the Heartland Conference. We feel our non-conference schedule will be very challenging, but will help get our team prepared for LSC South competition.

I would also like to congratulate Bijan Dotson who played for us over the past two seasons. He recently signed a contract to continue his career professionally in Germany. It is a great opportunity for him and we wish him the best!
