Cottey returns to action today, as they once again travel north to take on the Avila Eagles. Last years contest was a back and forth affair in Hinkhouse Gym, with the Comets coming out on top in a narrow victory. The Eagles will surely be excited for the return trip of the Comets, looking to avenge that loss.
