I don't mind it at all. It makes the section a little tougher, and that's a good thing. I think it's a good alignment. It gives us a little better competition.

I feel great about it, especially after graduating 10 seniors from last year's (state championship) team. We have a young team and it is an honor to win the section.
|
I think our kids are focused, and I think our confidence will be back if we do well in the first couple of series.
|
I think our skill players are better now than what they have been in the past.

I think we had an eye-opener against Latrobe. I think the players feel that they lost to an inferior team, and they learned a big lesson about preparation. Midway through the third quarter, they figured out that they had to go hard.

It is an honor to be the coach of a team that has such a rich tradition. I grew up with it, and it's a big part of my life. One of the things that I've always wanted was to be involved with Connellsville football.

It's real tough to get out of it. Once you get it locked up, it's real tough to break it.

Lee is really starting to sharpen everything up.

Penn Hills has an endless supply of athletic kids. They are extremely fast, and you see that right away. Their speed is who they are.
|
These kids get introduced to it in our Junior Olympic program.
|
This is just what we do. We had two hard practices this week, and the kids have to be used to doing this. Now, we're hoping to catch our second wind.
|
We have to counter with technique and game plans. I think our kids have responded well to the coaching, and they are more focused on what we are saying. They are more attentive, and I think we are where we should be as far as conditioning.
|
We talked about the hype with Penn Hills. But I also talked to our team about Connellsville's traditions. We're not focusing on Penn Hills. We are focusing on ourselves.
|
We were a little bit sluggish. But Elizabeth Forward is an improved team, and we have to keep that in mind.

What a great man. He wanted people to know he was thankful for Connellsville giving him his beginnings, athletically and academically.
