Coach’s Comments: 

“We have a very challenging schedule and have to be ready every week. We are very good at the skill positions and there is potential on the line – they need to develop, gain experience, and prove they can play. We have 20 seniors on the team, the most since I have been here, along with good leadership.” – Head Coach Lou Zampella
