Coaches’ Comments: I think like everyone, despite all of the restrictions we are just thankful to get the opportunity to play football. There aren’t any weeks off in the Huron League and this year won’t be any different. If we stay healthy, we should be able to compete each and every week.

FNV Outlook: Huron features an explosive offense with QB Austin Myers and 2019 FNV All-Blog WR Issac Smith both returning along with WR Chase Molnar. The Chiefs return the bulk of their offensive line and RB Tycen Stevens. Success for the Chiefs will hinge on their defense led by Tyler Short and Zack Taylor. Look for Huron to be in the thick of the Huron League race especially with nemesis Riverview not on the schedule.
