Coach’s Comments:
“We have key players back, but we graduated a lot. There is good young talent and we have more depth than we have had in a few years. We have to reinvent our lines, but the quarterback is in his third year as a starter and that’s always good. We’re excited.” – Head Coach Mike Lange
