Coach’s comments: We want to compete for an NWC championship and make it back to the playoffs. We have strong senior leadership. We have good size and we are very athletic at skill positions. I am bringing my offense that I ran at Van Wert for the past five seasons. The kids have met the challenge head on and I’m excited to see what they can do this season.
