    Cupcake schedule …
    1. It’ll look good in the W/L stats in december. (I hope)
    2. Not enough challenge going into the A10 season.
    3. Ceretainly won’t help during selection time.
    It is what it is i guess.

  2. I tend to agree. When we get closer to the season, I’ll break down the numbers.
