There is experience there, but no depth. Recruiting: Smith is a 1-AA candidate. Wiley, Roibal, and Citarella are D3. In the junior class, Hendrickson is a couple of inches short of being a 1-A player. He has a great motor and an overachiever. Concepcion is an improving player and needs a good year. The top sophomore is Wilson and he will be a scholarship player, with good feet and size. Coach's Comments: "We're better than we were a year ago. We're a good football team, returning quality kids. We will be a factor in our division. We have to get over the hump and Manalapan has gotten the best of us recently. They're the team to beat and we want to challenge them." - Head Coach Steve Antonucci |
