Coach’s Insight: “We have a good group of players that work hard each day to get better. We will hopefully take the varsity experience we received last year to make positive strides this season. We only had 12 players last season so there were times when players were playing in several different positions on the field. But that experience will be a good thing going into this season.” – Tyler Konrade, head coach
