Two things we have to do this season

Shields' teams historically have been slow starters, frequently digging holes for themselves early. I am not sure why, but his coaching style may have something to do with it. He needs to find an answer to that, for sure. Another problem we seemed to have last year was letting teams on on extended runs that took us out of games in the middle. Hopefully our defense will be good enough to prevent that most of the time. On the other side of the ledger, we have a couple of new jucos who appear to be pretty good offensively (Reid and Woods), who may be able to come into games and get our offense going again.
