Season Outlook:
“The Vikings will strive to be disciplined in all facets of the game and make the key plays that are the difference between winning and losing in 6A District 1 football. We play a very challenging non-league schedule that we are very excited about. Our Division is packed with good football teams and we will be tested each week. We are looking forward to watching our senior leaders take ownership of this football team.”
