Coming into a year of uncertainty wondering when, or if, his team would play, junior forward Lukas Sunesson is taking advantage of the opportunity to be on the pitch after he feared it would not happen.

“It feels surreal that we’re actually going to have a season,” Sunesson said before the team’s first game against Loyola-Chicago Feb. 3. “We’re all so stoked and I’m just thankful.”

Normally the team spends the summer off, looking forward to the fall season right at the start of school. This season, their normal fall season was postponed to spring, and they did not know what that adapted spring season would look like for a long time.
