ANYTHING ELSE YOU’D LIKE TO SAY ABOUT TEAM, SEASON
We are bringing back a great group of guys who have a lot of varsity experience. Being a small school, many of our guys were asked to contribute on Friday nights early in their high school careers. Many of our starters this year were starters last year and even those who were not “starters” have seen a good amount of playing time on Friday nights.
We have quite a quarterback battle going on this summer. Senior Chris Wheeler (single season passing leader in school history) is 412 yards away from becoming the all-time career passing leader in school history. Senior Seth Becker (Western Brown High School transfer) was second in the city last year with 2,955 yards passing. Sophomore Alex Manz started in 3 games last year and threw for 596 yards. All three have a shot at winning the starting position.

There are a lot of spots to be earned on the team this year but the players have been working hard together as a team and the leadership has been strong so far. What we are losing in size we are gaining in speed this year.
