Coach's Take

 
"It's exciting to meet SFU in preseason. It will be a good opportunity to play against a quality opponent," said UBC Head Coach Jesse Symons. "I've been really impressed to see the second year players pushing the envelope so far in training. Sydney Jennings, Amelia Crawford, and Rachel Jones have really shown that they may be big contributors this season."
