Coach’s View

I think it will be important for us to start fast this season to gain confidence in ourselves and to begin to build momentum going into our tough region. We have started our last two seasons losing three of our first four games. Maturity and experience should give us the edge we need. We return seven starters on defense and have five returning players on the OL who all started at some point last season.
