Huskies hopeful young talent can lead them deep into the postseason

So while the starting lineup may be mostly underclassmen, Coach Andy Krug is hopeful for a strong season. "We've got the talent to stay in it this year and be a good team for the next few years," Krug said. "It's really exciting for us." Krug said he has a team filled with eager learners …
