Coach’s comments:
“We have a really good nucleus with a lot of playmakers who are back. More so than any other year we have built the offense around the talents of Chase Andries. We want him to mix it up with drop passes and getting to the edge. We have to stay healthy to reach our potential. We can’t have the injury bug hit us like it did last year; one point we were out seven players.
“We stress speed, speed, speed. Everything we do on defense and our blocking schemes depend on getting off the ball fast. We believe our program is now in place. Everything: Expectations, work ethic, attendance and schemes are in place for us.” – Coach Mark Weller
