What it Takes to Repeat
For Cornerstone it is pretty simple in the final week of the regular season to repeat as WHAC Regular Season Champions, if the team goes 2-0 and defeats Concordia and Madonna they will repeat as Champions. The big match of the week comes on Saturday at Madonna. If both teams win their Wednesday game it will come down to the winner of that contest will be the WHAC Regular Season Champion. The only way Cornerstone can win the WHAC Title and not go 2-0 this week is if Madonna also were to lose their Wednesday match vs. Rochester. 
 
Milestones Achieved 
Patsy Morris and Aubrey Lenz each achieved a significant milestone last week. Morris currently sits at 1,717 career digs.
