What do you feel you have improved on most since last football season?

How do you feel your team will do next football season?
“I feel this season is going to be great overall, we have a great coaching staff and great players, we just have to put it all together into a successful season.”

What team do you feel will be the toughest competition on your schedule?
“Our toughest team of the schedule this year will probably be Dutchtown, they are the first game of the season so it's going to really serve as a test to see where we are as a team and what we can improve and work on for later in the season.”

Who is the toughest individual player your team will face off against?
“The toughest player we will have to face this year will probably be Ayden Cain, he's a great interior D-Lineman. He's really explosive off the ball, has good hands and is a good size so finding a way to block him in game one is going to be key to success.”
