What to Watch For

Coach Berrier is returning an experienced team from 2016, and yet has youth.  The Vikings know what they are getting into with the Mountain Valley and have an excitement surrounding them to take on the challenge.  The lineup should  have some depth, returning five starters from last year.  As the arms go, so will the Vikings fortunes.
