II Regional finalist team.   Jim Ned returns (2) 1st Team All-District players.  JV Record (8-2), Freshman record (6-4).  Overall Strength - offense, Offensive strength - receiver, Defensive strength - linebacker.  Notes from the Coach: It will be a rebuilding year but our program and the successes of the last 4 years will go along way to help our young kid get ready.  They expect to win so they probably will.  Should be ok on the offensive side but will have to grow up fast on the defense.

II Area playoff team.   Coleman returns (2) 1st All-District players.  Overall Strength - both offense and defense, Offensive strength - quarterback, running back, Defensive strength - defensive line, defensive back.  Notes from the Coach: Team should be stronger with experience.  Will have to adjust to a new coach and system.
