Sam Houston downed the visiting “Roos” from Austin College on Saturday (3/6) by a score of 24-0.

True test for the Kats will be this Monday (3/8) when 17th ranked Kennesaw State comes to faceoff with the #22 Bearkats.  Coach Fritts said “This game has been planned for many months and Coach Byers (KSU Head Coach) and I look forward to a great game.”  Both Fritts and Byers are from Long Island so this might mean some… “bragging rights?!”  “Coach Byers will have his boys ready, trust me.  They’ll be in shape, they’ll have a great amount of finesse and by all means, they’ll hit you when they need to… just as we do.  It will be good old fashion ‘Long Island’ ball all night long.”

The two coaches have never met before as all communication has been done via phone and email.  “This is going to be fun. He (Byers) is a class act and I know we both look forward to being able to put a face with a name.”

Monday night’s match up will be the most important game in the history of Sam Houston lacrosse. Fritts says “This game will either catapult us forward on the national scene and get us some respect or we’ll drop like a hot potato.”

Game time is 6:30pm.  Be there… support your KATS… and wear your ORANGE!!!
