KEYS TO THE GAME

Don't Get Distracted: The Fresno Monsters have the largest home arena in the league and with more seats, come more fans. The Monsters are known for their showmanship within the league and they will have to make sure not to lose focus on winning the game.


Don't feed the Spartans: Southern Oregon is hungry and will want to steal a road win in order to snap their 11 game winless streak. Making them a potentially dangerous threat when backed into the corner.
