return, LIU can really start expecting more
victories. Even with that, the Pioneers have
some areas to improve upon, and Collins has
already been making adjustments.
“Going into the year, we felt solid in
certain areas, but we had certain question
marks in other areas,” Collins said, “We have
to stop giving up the big play.”

The defense has had a rough time,
especially over the past two games, giving
up 86 combined points. It was a major
difference as the defense allowed just 28 in
the first pair of games. Collins is confident
that the Pioneers can recover from the losses
and put together a winning season.
