; “She’s [Walsworth] been
down as of late. She really hit it
with authority, minimized her er
rors,” noted Woods.
“SWOCC was a different
story [from Umpqua], We didn’t
start out strong. We did fight hard
to come back. We need to focus
our discipline,” said Woods.
Attendance has been low so
far this season.
“This [Mt. Hood] is arival. I
would like to challenge the fac

matches. I want them there, and
I want to hear them. We have
only two home games and one of
them is against a league rival,
said Woods.
Woods added with a smile
that they are in second place and
“ER is on Thursdays ,and there
is no Monday Night Football on
[Wednesday].”
