Key Losses
The Stingers graduated a talented senior class that played a major role in the success of our program over the past several seasons.
Camden Rising (QB/DE) – One of the most productive players in school history, Rising passed for 2,332 yards and rushed for 596 yards during his senior season. He accounted for 36 total touchdowns and was also a physical presence on defense at defensive end.
Carter Knox (C/DT) – A four-year contributor who anchored both the offensive and defensive lines. Knox provided leadership, toughness, and consistency at center and defensive tackle and was instrumental in our success in the trenches.
Josh Troup (K) – A reliable and valuable special teams’ weapon who scored 46 points and connected on two field goals during his senior season.
Austin McKendrick (OT/DT) – A tough, physical lineman who contributed on both sides of the ball at offensive tackle and defensive tackle.
Noah Fillopovich (CB) – A lockdown cornerback who excelled in coverage and was one of our most dependable open-field tacklers.
Gage Pennington (G/T) – A versatile offensive lineman who provided valuable experience and toughness while playing both guard and tackle.
Joseph Shipley (WR/CB) – A two-way contributor who made plays at wide receiver and cornerback, providing athleticism and versatility to our team.

We are excited about the potential of this group and expect our players to compete every week while continuing the winning culture that has been built within our program.
