"Working with Defiance has been a joint effort and everyone was exceptional in hosting us as an organization joining the league," head coach Tandy Bradford said afterwards.  "I'm proud of our team for setting some very specific team goals and achieving those with every member.  We are certainly appreciative of all the families driving out and helping the team today and wish everyone a happy holiday."
