ONE, 2-1 THE FINAL.
>>> TEAMS ACROSS THE NORTHLAND
HAD FALL COMPETITION MOVED TO
THE SPRING DUE TO COVID-19.
ALTHOUGH NO GAMES WILL BE PLAYED
FOR A LOT OF TEAMS, THEY'RE
STILL ABLE TO PRACTICE.
CBS 3'S RYAN COMPEAU SPOKE WITH
THE MEN'S SOCCER TEAM TODAY ON
THEIR RETURN TO THE SOCCER
PITCH.
>> Reporter: FOR THE FIRST TIME
SINCE LAST SPRING, THE UW
SUPERIOR MEN'S SOCCER TEAM IS
BACK TOGETHER ON THE PITCH.
>> JUST TO HAVE THIS TIME, I
THINK REALLY THE SENTIMENT HAS
BEEN OVERWHELMING.
IT'S JUST GRATEFUL TO BE HERE.
>> GRATEFUL TO BE BACK AFTER
MANY THOUGHT THIS DAY WOULD NOT
COME.
>> JUST BEING AROUND THE GUYS
THAT YOU APPRECIATE AND SUPPORT
AND WANT TO HELP YOU BETTER.
>> Reporter: THE FIVE MONTHS
AWAY FROM THE TEAM TESTING THE
PLAYERS MENTAL TOUGHNESS.
>> ESPECIALLY WHAT'S GOING ON
NOW.
I THINK IT WEEDS OUT THE WEAK
MINDED.
YOU HAVE TO BE STRONG MINDED TO
KEEP GOING THROUGH THE OBSTACLES
AND KEEP GOING THROUGH ALL THE
THINGS THAT HAVE BEEN THROWN AT
US.
KEEP MOVING FORWARD.
>> Reporter: MOVING FORWARD TO
THE RETURN OF PRACTICE IN A WAY
THAT THEY NEVER DONE IT BEFORE.
>> WE BRING THEM IN FOR AN HOUR
APIECE.
IT'S ALL TECHNICAL WORK.
THERE'S NO CONTACT INVOLVED.
IT'S TRYING TO KEEP GUYS
SOCIALLY DISTANT AS MUCH AS
POSSIBLE.
>> YOU TAKE A POSITIVE OUT OF A
NEGATIVE, HAVING THESE SMALL
GROUPS, YOU KNOW SOME OF THE
NEWER PEOPLE QUICKER THAN IT
WOULD BE NORMALLY.
>> Reporter: WHEN THE FIRST
WHISTLE BLOWS ON THE KICK OFF,
THE EXTRA PRACTICE WILL GO A
LONG WAY FOR THE YELLOW JACKETS.
>> AS INDIVIDUALS, HOW CAN WE BE
OUR BEST AND HOW CAN WE AS
TEAMMATES REALLY SUPPORT EACH
OTHER AND HELP OTHERS BE AT
THEIR BEST?
REALLY IT'S EVERYDAY, JUST
CREATING AN ENVIRONMENT WHERE
GUYS CAN DEVELOP AT THE BEST OF
THEIR ABILITY.
