The Tigers are off to a solid start, even after losing five senior starters last year. Waldo said he thinks he has some smart, competitive guys that are doing a very good job playing defense which opens opportunities up to score.

“We are getting better every day,” Waldo said.

Play for the Tigers will continue Saturday in the overnight trip to Normal.
