OUTLOOK:
Coach Sheppard in his 25th Season at he helm brings back six starters from an already young team. Led by the aforementioned Coyne, Dempsey, and Beumee, the Crimson have some unfinished business to attend to, having lost to St. Mary's in a tough 2-1 game in last year's state semifinal. Look for the speedy Beumee and versatility of the two sophomores Coyne and Dempsey to propel them to the next level in 2018.
