Team Outlook: We graduated an outstanding senior class that played a major role in our success, but we are
excited about the foundation returning to our program. Chase Mitcheltree returns as one of the top players in
our region, and we have a talented group of returners in Rowan Miller, Cam Kettering, Cael Kettering, Jaron
Lohrenz, and Jude Beatty. We also have several younger players who gained valuable varsity experience last
season and are ready to take on larger roles. Our offseason has been productive, particularly in the weight
room, where our players have embraced the work required to compete at a high level. We expect to be a
physical, disciplined football team that continues to improve throughout the season.
League Prediction: Farrell enters the season as the favorite in our region. Beyond that, we expect the region to
be very competitive. We have developed strong local rivalries with the teams in our region, and these programs
know one another very well. We anticipate many competitive and exciting region battles throughout the season
