Conference outlook:
Edgar
Colby
Edgar appears to be far ahead of everyone else as far as returning talent. They should be very strong.
Colby is going to have great numbers and tradition going for them.
The conference should be strong once again. I believe that the teams that finished in the bottom half will be improved. Loyal, Abbotsford, and Marathon will all be better. They had young rosters last year.
Keys to your success this season:
Offensive balance and execution.
Defensively will be how physical we will be or how much physicalness we can develop. Execution and tackling are always keys to defense.
Behind the scenes: Who are some of the people that help your program succeed?
The parents and my wife are always the most help for the program. The parents do a lot to support their kids and my wife does a lot to support me and the program.
