Coach Says: Cael Kettering is another returning player we are very excited about entering this season. He is an explosive athlete who made big plays for us in all phases last year. Offensively, Cael averaged over 11 yards per carry and consistently provided explosive plays in the running game, while defensively he finished among our leading tacklers and also contributed as a pass defender. Cael is a competitive player who continues to grow physically and mentally within our program. He brings toughness, athleticism, and versatility to our team, and we expect him to continue taking major steps forward this season.
