After starting the season with two straight wins, the Okanagan Sun have lost conceded their last two games.
The Sun suffered a 37-13 loss to the Vancouver Island Raiders last week in a one-sided match where the locals struggled again on their execution on both sides of the ball.
Sun head coach Jamie Boreham said the team didn香蕉视频直播檛 deal with the distractions that come with a road game.
香蕉视频直播淲e香蕉视频直播檙e not doing the wrong things,香蕉视频直播� he said.
香蕉视频直播淲e didn香蕉视频直播檛 start the game the way we wanted to and didn香蕉视频直播檛 deal with travel as good football teams are suppose to.
香蕉视频直播淲e香蕉视频直播檙e successful in practice and confident in our game plan ahead of our games, but at the end of the day, our troubles boil down to execution.香蕉视频直播�

The troubles that have plagued the team in the two straight losses were further addressed when the Sun香蕉视频直播檚 team captains called a team meeting ahead of practice this week.
With no game this weekend because of the scheduled bye-week, the players hoped that a team meeting would be the best way to take advantage of the time that the team has off ahead of the battle with the conference leading Langley Rams.
香蕉视频直播淭he rest from the bye will be good,香蕉视频直播� said Boreham.
香蕉视频直播淲e香蕉视频直播檙e going to continue to work. We had a good day (Monday) and after the team meeting, the guys came to practice with a good look and a good work ethic.
香蕉视频直播淲e香蕉视频直播檙e not where we want to be in terms of execution, and the captains got the guys together and said, 香蕉视频直播楾his isn香蕉视频直播檛 what we do around here.香蕉视频直播�

Boreham notes that his players are young and it香蕉视频直播檚 the first year of them all playing together.
Cap that off with a brand new coaching staff and these growing pains are to be expected for the Sun.
These trials and tribulations will hopefully be resolved ahead of the Sun香蕉视频直播檚 anticipated game with the Rams.
The rematch comes almost a year after Langley knocked the Sun out of the 2018 playoffs with a 39-7 victory.
Okanagan香蕉视频直播檚 bye week alongside the camaraderie gained through the team meeting aims to be a big factor if the Sun hope to be successful against the Rams.
Boreham said the Sun will need to bring their best when the two teams meet Sept. 8.
香蕉视频直播淚f you want to measure your team and see where you香蕉视频直播檙e at, this is the team you do it against,香蕉视频直播� he said.
