WORDS FROM THE HEAD COACH:

Logan is a rare combination of QB/LB. Not many kids in the state can pull that off, but Logan can! He is our 2nd returning top tackler. From the Sam position Logan was an absolute ball hawk creating huge turnovers. On offense, he split time at QB early on in the year but is ready to take over the reins this season. We look forward to Logan being a leader and playmaker on both sides of the ball!
