2015 Outlook: Please let us know the keys about your team on offense, defense and special teams. What are your keys to having a successful year?
We have to cut down on turnovers and penalities to be successful. Numbers are low, so we have to stay healthy. Way ahead of last year at this time because of new staff in place last season.
Have to control the ball. Kids feel confident and are working hard.
Defensively, we have to stop the run. Strength is WR’s and secondary. QB position is in good hands woith Downey and Scott.
