[Coach Howard]

I get to see these two teams daily since we share the soccer/football facility with them. I really expect both teams to have great seasons and compete for regional titles. Both teams return most of their talent from last season and leadership will not be a problem for either of them. They have two great coaches in Joe Roberts and Greg Collins and I can guarantee that nobody in the region will outwork these two guys. I would mention individual names but the talent is so great I am afraid that I would leave somebody out and I don't want to hurt any one of these kids feelings. Good luck Cougars and we are looking for two regional championships this season. I look forward to being on the field with you guys and girls in a month or so.
