2020 Returning Player Stats:

Dylan McKenzie caught 20 passes for 325 yards and 6 touchdowns and rushed for 40 yards. 

Will Conlin caught 5 passes for 34 yards and three touchdowns. 

2021 Outlook: Our goals are consistent every year- we look to contend for the league title and get into the AAAA playoffs to compete for a district title. It will be a “tough go” in the very competitive Sub. One league but we hope to stay healthy and build something special this year!

Strengths: include a great senior class and tremendous leadership- those seniors have experienced a lot of success over the last 3 years (several AAAA playoff appearances and several Sub. One wins vs. 6A opponents). We return virtually our whole defense and several key components on offense. Toughness and high football IQs will be our trademarks.

Weaknesses: include some inexperienced players on offense as we need to replace several key starters on the Offensive line, along with an all-state receiver and a 2-year starter at QB who broke school records.
