This year the football team pushed through a lot of  challenges, and ended with a record of 8-3.

“I think our record didn’t show how good we truly are, we had a rough end to the season, but I’m proud of everything we did accomplish,” junior Peyton Ludemann said.

The team ended second in district, and lost during the first round of playoffs.

“The main goal for playoffs is to play your best and keep fighting no matter what,” Ludemann said. “Since playoffs a re the best of the best it’s important to bring your A game, which is something I think we struggled to do this year.”

The team plans on working extra hard during off season to ensure they are able to reach their goals next year.

“The boys are already hard at work in our off season program getting ready for next season,” football coach Tyler Branyon said. “They are lifting weights and running every day to make sure they are in the best shape possible to compete for next fall.”

“Although we did not go as far in the playoffs as we would have liked, the kids played very hard all year long,” Branyon said.

Both the coaches and players are looking forward to next season and working hard to prepare.

“I’m excited to get back on the grind and put in work for next season,” Ludemann said.
