The first six weeks of the Okanagan Sun香蕉视频直播檚 season has gone by quick.
With a 3-3 record so far this year, the Sun only have four more games to ensure advancing to the post-season rather than an early start to the off-season.
Okanagan got back in the win column last weekend with a 38-9 over the winless Kamloops Broncos. It wasn香蕉视频直播檛 a tough win, but it was a step in the right direction.
香蕉视频直播淵ou can take as much positives as you can when you lose, but it香蕉视频直播檚 nice to get back in the win column after this past weekend,香蕉视频直播� said Sun head coach Jamie Boreham.
The Sun have been unable to score more than 13 points in their three losses, while scoring more than 20 points in each win.
香蕉视频直播淭he offence is getting more comfortable with the guys in their positions starting to come together. It was great to see them succeed and for a bunch of the guys get into the end zone,香蕉视频直播� Boreham said.

Now in the second half of the season, the next four games will be the second time the Sun have played these teams, including their last three games of the season being against teams that have already beaten them this year.
In their second last home game of the season this weekend, the Sun will host the Valley Huskers. Okanagan beat the Huskers 21-16 on Aug. 10.
香蕉视频直播淭hey香蕉视频直播檙e a good football team and they香蕉视频直播檝e had some tight games like us as well. This is a must-win for both of us,香蕉视频直播� Boreham said.
The coach said that the Sun will do what they香蕉视频直播檝e done all season: take it one game at a time.
香蕉视频直播淭his is the only game we香蕉视频直播檙e playing this week and that香蕉视频直播檚 why it香蕉视频直播檚 the most important. We香蕉视频直播檒l have a better understanding of these teams now that it香蕉视频直播檚 the second time, and we香蕉视频直播檙e going to continue to get better.香蕉视频直播�

The offence and defence were clicking in the win over Kamloops while the Sun香蕉视频直播檚 special teams were in need of improvements.
Looking down the barrel of the rest of the season, the fine tuning will be essential if Okanagan wants to be one of only four teams in the six-team conference to advance to the playoffs.
香蕉视频直播淭he fine-tuning is in the execution. We are who we are, and we need to execute. Our players are starting to own their jobs and roles on the team, though it took longer than we hoped. We香蕉视频直播檙e happy with our direction and getting the back in the win column and we need to continue that,香蕉视频直播� Boreham said.
The Sun host the Huskers on Sunday afternoon at Kelowna香蕉视频直播檚 Apple Bowl at 1 p.m.
