Coach’s Comments:  

“We’re excited. The core of our team is the sophomore class, with over 20 kids. We also have a good group of seniors with a 3-year starter at quarterback and a 4-year starter in Malachi Melton. We’re striving to bring back December football: we’re hungry and ready to compete.” – Head Coach Tim Watson
