Strengths:  Creating scoring opportunities seems to be a strength early on.
The experience is a strength as well, as all 11 starters played in a state playoff game last year!

Question marks:  The only question mark thus far is staying healthy.  Originally, there was fear of over-confidence, but the work rate in pre-season has been unmatched!

Outlook:  “The team brings back its core from the 2015 team who made a magical playoff run.  This year’s goal is to top last year’s success.  It will be a very difficult task, but if they can stay healthy, the experience gained from 2015 could be the intangible that has this team playing deep into November.”
