He said ” I feel all the pain I’ve gone through to get me to this point. I think about how much work I’ve put in through my life and I also think about my teammates who I consider my brothers and how much I don’t want to let them down.”

When asked about how last season helped going into this year.  Robinson said,  “Last season was a building block for us. It made us realize how we need to improve and how much work we need to do in order to make the playoffs which is our ultimate goal.”

The Pride is 6-1 and is looking on going 7-1 with their game against Dominion.
