Conference outlook:
The Central Wisconsin 8 is a very tough conference year and year out. In my opinion it’s one of the toughest small school conferences in the state. Last year we had two teams at State.
Keys to your success this season:
Continue to get better weekend and week out. We have a lot of young guys playing new positions all over the place.  Also a lot of the older guys are inexperienced. Have to get everybody up to speed. We will be led by our offense and defensive lines.

Behind the scenes: Who are some of the people that help your program succeed? 

We have a great community supports us. Parents put on a team meal every Thursday and the kids always say it’s the best meal of the week.
I also have a very supportive ministration that understands the importance of Kids being involved in extracurricular activities

Coach’s comments: anything else you’d like to share?

I am just hoping we have a chance to finish the season this year on our own terms.  Two out of the last three years we have not had that opportunity.
