What are your expectations for your team this year? 
I expect us to continue with the success we had last season and compete as a top team in the ICC and prove ourselves in the District 6 playoffs.

When your team is on offense, what are the keys to success? 
Using our speed to exploit mismatches and get into open space.

When your team is on defense, what are the keys to success? 
Play reactionary football with less thinking and more doing, trust our instincts and play fast.
