Coach: Joseph Porter (11th season).
Last season, 42nd District: 2-14-1 (24 GF/78 GA), lost 6-1 to Henry Clay in district semis.
Outlook: “We were very young last year. We’re still very young with a big freshman class, but (this year’s sophomores) gained a lot experience last year and I think that will pay off. … This team will be competitive and in a lot of games with chances to win.”
SITB impression: The Spartans have the tools to build a competitive programs and should contend for more wins this season.
Player’s take: Senior Matthew Bernard — “We’ve got a lot of really good freshmen this year, so we’re going to start growing a program that’s going to last us a few years here. … To leave a legacy of a really good team would be really important to me.”
