LAST SEASON

9th place in Wesco South (0-8, 1-9)

RETURNING STARTERS:

Offense 7; Defense 7

LOOK AHEAD

With a lot of returning experience on both sides of the ball, the Thunderbirds are looking to turn the corner after three straight 1-9 seasons. Team strength and speed were both improved by Shorewood’s off-seasoning conditioning program.

COACH’S COMMENT

“This is a pivotal year in the rebuilding process … After installing both a new offense and a new defense in 2007 we are looking forward to adding new wrinkles on both sides of the ball.”
