"The last couple of years we stayed away from the pre-season games so we could be injury free going into the season but we noticed we were a step behind the lst couple of years coming out of the date so we wanted to remedy that" said Head Coach Matt Aielllo.
The Predators are coming off a down year having a record of 8 and 4 during the 2009 campaign. They were eliminated by the eventual champion NJ Bucs last season during the 2nd round of the playoffs. "We did some good things and some bad things last year but fumbling the ball while ahead with two minutes remaining left in the game left a bad taste in the entire organizations mouth" Added Aiello "That wasn't Predator football but 2010 is a new year and we will be better prepared" he added
