The Lions men play Bayonne at home on Randalls Island. It’s a humid afternoon with overcast sky as the men are in a good mood watching the girls destroy Brooklyn. Before the match, the team seems relaxed, but concentrated. Danny Newcombe predicts a 37-15 victory. During the warm-up, Pat McJury reminds the guys that communication is key. Shelton (who coaches in Adrian’s absence) tells the team to get their heads into the game.
