2015 Outlook:

WE ARE VERY EXCITED ABOUT THIS YEARS GROUP, WE LOST A NUMBER OF SKILL KIDS OFF LAST’S YEARS DISTRICT CHAMPIONSHIP TEAM BUT FEEL REALLY GOOD ABOUT THE LINE, ESPECIALLY, ON THE OFFENSIVE SIDE AND THE RETURNING SKILL PLAYERS, AND THEY ALL HAD AN EXCELLENT OFF-SEASON.

WE RETURN A NICE NUCLEUS OF PLAYERS ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BALL AND HAVE A QUALITY GROUP OF UNDERCLASSMEN, ESPECIALY ON THE O-LINE. OUR NUMBERS ARE OVER 60 ON THE ROSTER SO THE INTEREST IS AT AN ALL TIME HIGH.

WE ARE GOING TO RELY A LOT ON OUR SENIOR CLASS AND LANCE BLASS, A RETURNING ALL STATE FREE SAFETY.

Offensive Starters Returning: 5

Defensive Starters Returning: 5
