2017 Season Outlook:

This is our first season in 8 man football and in a new conference so it is very exciting. We graduated a lot of experience and production so we are a little young, but our young players are tough young men. I believe its a great mix of guys so it should be an exciting year.

Outlook on Conference/Division:

Being this is our first year in the conference and looking at the schedule, any one can beat anyone. You always have to bring your best when playing any of the teams in this conference.
