COACH’S COMMENTS
“… Great Senior night win. Proud of our kids. We have steadily improved on the defensive side of things and that’s what it takes to win in post season.”
“… We did honor our 6 seniors. And it was a great night. The older I get the more appreciation I have for seniors. Not many people are willing to stick with anything anymore. These 6 guys- Cody, Ford, Abner, Jake, Talan, and Blake have been through a lot during their careers. I’m proud of each one and it’s been an honor to be able to coach them. They are great kids from great families.
“… All 6 of them have been able to have significant roles this year which will make it difficult to replace them.”
