Northern Lights Invitational Preview

Filed under:

Larissa Anderson’s squad kicks off their much anticipated season with a gauntlet of games against Penn State, UConn, Wisconsin, Virginia Tech, and Liberty in Leesburg, FL

Five games in three days, two against teams projected to finish in the top three in their respective conferences, and another projected to win their conference? That’s a helluva way to start a season, right? What’s that saying? If you want to be the best, you’ve gotta beat the best?

The Tigers’ early schedule isn’t for the faint of heart, that’s for sure, and things get kicked off early Friday in the Northern Lights Invitational in Leesburg, FL (a common site for early season ball, as you’ll come to see).
