Coach Says: Chase Mitcheltree is one of the top returning players in our program and one of the top returning players in our region. He earned WKBN Big 22 honors along with multiple All District and All State recognitions following a tremendous junior season. Chase rushed for over 1,300 yards and scored 25 touchdowns last year while also making a major impact defensively in the secondary. Beyond the numbers, Chase is a tough, physical football player who competes at a very high level and understands the expectations and standards of our program.
