Coach Fuhrman – “As a group we are excited for the season. Since January when the new staff joined, our players have adjusted to a new routine and shown excellent effort and attitude in everything we’ve done leading up to the season.”
“We have a talented group with big contributions expected from every class as we find out who we are going to be by the end of the season. Our goal will always be to start with base schemes and tweak as we go, evolving into a different team as we identify our strengths and weaknesses by the time playoffs start. I cannot be more proud of the work these guys have put in so far, and as a staff we can’t wait to see the heights they reach this season.”
