It was only four years ago that Tri-West was on top of the high school football world. The Bruins were coming off of two-straight 2A Titles, and everything was going their way. Since then, things have not quite been the same for the Hendricks County program. However, head coach Chris Coll feels that this group has the skills to take the next step.
“We return a number of our skilled position players, [including] our RB, 2 WR’s, and QB on offense. We also return 3 starters in our Defensive Secondary.”
Jake Allen will lead the offense at QB, with help from RB Caleb Ross. At wideout, the Bruins return Jakob Wright and Andrew Keck. The biggest question surrounding the offense this season is how to replace four players on the offensive line. John Roberson is the single returning starter from last year’s unit up front on the line.
Defensively the Bruins will rely on All-Conference DT Drake Gadberry, as well as DB Caleb Ross in the secondary.
“We will need to fill holes in our Defensive Front,” says Coach Coll.
If the Bruins can find a way to reload quickly on both sides of the line, then things will definitely be looking up for Chris Coll and Company in 2008.
