From The Coach

"We're excited just to be in the playoffs especially moving up to the 16 seed and getting a home game"

"It's been an up and down season for us, we're blessed and fortunate to still play"

"Elkin is a good football team and they are in the playoffs for a reason, they have a good athlete (Hincher) that can line up at WR, RB, DB, and sometimes QB"

"They are big up front (seniors 6'2 Keenan Kimber, 6'7 Logan Wilmoth), we know we got to play a good football game"

"Offensively there are some things we can exploit and we got to get that swagger back on defense"

-Chris Powell
