As of right now, the football team should finish near the top of the new district having one of the best records last season and the return of some D1 players. Head Football Coach Chris Melson thinks the new district will be good for the team.
“I like the new district. We have great teams such as Highland Park, Timberview, and Lancaster. And we also have teams not as strong but will still have some great athletes,” Melson said. “So you don’t have to beat six great teams in get in the playoffs like our old district. So you might be able to slip in an off-game and still make the playoffs.”
