Q&A with Coach Carter Cardwell
Q. How would you characterize this year’s team?
A. A hardworking, unselfish group with a lot of experience in skill positions.
Q. What will be the keys to your success?
A. The development of guys on the line of scrimmage for both sides of the ball.
Q. Who will be your key leaders on the team?
A. Harrison Smith, Britt Chadwick, Austin Griffith, Barrett Ogrodowczyk, Lucas Eisenhardt, and Luke Finch.
Q. What are your biggest reasons for optimism?
A. We have a lot of guys coming back that have played a lot of meaningful football on Friday nights.
Q. What can you build on from last year?
A. Hopefully, we can build off the success we had playing into late November last year.
Q. Any lessons learned from last year?
A. I hope our players learned that hard work pays off. The kids and coaches on the 2024 team worked extremely hard all offseason. It was not an accident they achieved the things they did.
Q. How would you characterize your team’s speed?
A. Overall, this will be the fastest team I’ve coached at Sequatchie. We lost our fastest guy off last year’s team, but we have several guys that can run waiting for their opportunity.
