Head coach Brian Bergstrom offered his comments on the choice upon the announcement that the Warriors had been granted a spot in the tournament: “We are ecstatic as a program to continue playing football together and secure a Week 12 spot. It fits perfectly with our motto of ‘1-0.’ We are eager to conquer the week. It’s a testament to how hard our troops have worked and how well they have earned it. For them, I could not be happier.” With an 8-3 record and the NSIC South Division Championship at the end of the regular season, the Warriors.
