2024 OUTLOOK

”We are certainly a young team, but I don't think that is a bad thing. I think as the whole program is taking a slight overhaul it will be interesting to see who steps up as a leader for this team. Early in the season we might have our bumps, but as these athletes get acclimated to the varsity level I think we will be able to compete for a conference title with our ability to manufacture runs and play sound defense." - Cory Schmidt, Head Coach
