2016 REVIEW/2017 PREVIEW
The 2016 season would have to be deemed a
successful season finishing with 8 total wins, a
resounding win over our rival Orrville, a dominant
performance over a strong Wadsworth team, and a
great finish to the season with a win over Thomas
Worthington! As we reflect back on our preparation,
we introduced the “Night of Champions” and
continued our “Dog Soldier” training in July. The
Season didn’t skate by without its fair share
of adversity either; a heartbreaking loss to
Ashland in 3 overtimes, a hard fought
battle with Lexington, and multiple injuries
among key personnel and positions
throughout the season.
In spite of this, we still feel that much was accomplished in 2016 and that there is much to be proud of! As we prepare for the 2017 season, it’s the experience of these hardships that motivates the coaching staff and hopefully you as players to get even better! As we begin to prepare in earnest for the 2017 season, we would like to draw your attention to our schedule, which will be the most demanding in the past 5 years; Week #3 we host Dover , Week #9 we travel to 2016 Division V State Champion Canton Central Catholic , and we conclude the 2017 season in week #10 at Ashland. This is a very demanding schedule which will demand your best in both preparation and performance!
Tuesdays/Thursdays (7, 9, 14, 16, 21, 23, 28) from 7:00pm to 8:15pm at the Dean Davis building
Saturdays (11, 18, 25) from 9:00am to 10:15am at the Dean Davis building
