Counting on results from a great summer session plus depth at the linemen position, Kelloggsville Coach Brandon Branch is planning on moving the program forward this season.
“I expect our program to take some steps forward this season,” said Branch, whose Rockets finished 1-5 in the OK Silver and 1-8 overall last year. “We have had excellent summer participation and will see the results of that effort.
“We have a large group of linemen, the largest by number we have ever had. Depth at a position creates competition which will lead to a tough O-Line and D-Line.”
Kelloggsville Season Opener: At home against Grant on Thursday, Aug. 24 (7 p.m.)
“I am expecting a hard-fought game against Grant,” Branch said. “We have been preparing for them all summer so I don’t think our guys will be surprised by anything Grant will throw at us.
“My guys will be tough and fight to the end. It’s going to be a great start to our season.”
Some key players Branch expects to lead the team
- Jeremie Tsoumou (QB/Wing/Corner)
- Terrell Jones (RB/LB)
- Jovany Reynolds (RB/LB)
- Marquis McKinney (WR/CB)
- Reggie McCaleb (WR/S)
- Isaak Kowel (RB/LB)
- Cameron Dunbar (QB/S)
- John Mubake (LB/G)
- Zac Domingo (G/DT)
