After graduating 29 of 49 lettermen from last year’s team, Cooper coach Aaron Roan knew the Cougars would experience some growing pains this fall.

And through an 0-2 start to the season, they have.

But if you think the Cougars are alarmed or concerned about their record at this stage, you’d be wrong. For Cooper — and particularly its coach — it’s more about process than results this time of year. And the Coogs are still on track to accomplish all of the goals they’ve set for themselves this season.
