San Marcos is getting back into football shape as the 2019 season quickly approaches. But more important to head coach Mark Soto, the Rattlers are growing closer together.
Check out the players’ Twitter accounts and there are photos of the Rattlers bonding around the lunch table at various restaurants around town. Sure, San Marcos’ motto this season is ‘Defend SM,’ but Soto jokes that the team is ‘Eating SM.’
“We’ve had a great fall camp,” Soto said. “For two weeks straight, we've been (practicing) early in the morning. The committed have been here. Attendance has been great — Six o'clock in the morning for two weeks straight is tough to do for a teenager. And you could tell they were growing together on Twitter feeds because they were all going to eat at different restaurants together. They were defending SM all over the place. I told them, ‘they're eating SM.’ But that was good to see. So they've definitely grown closer together.”
