Carlson finished the 2020 season with a 4-3 record, but the Marauders return 14 starters and should be in the thick of the Downriver League race under first-year head coach, Landon Grove.
Head Coach: Landon Grove

Players to Watch Jaishaun Williams WR/QB/DB, Cody Britt RB/LB, Robert MacAleese OL/DL and Ben Przytula TE/DL
Underclassmen to watch Chris Copley Sophomore QB Brandon Scheffler Junior WR/DBBen Przytula Junior TE/DLTimmy Simmons Junior DB/RB
Coach’s Thoughts: Watch out for Allen Park, Wyandotte and Woodhaven in the Downriver League.
FNV Outlook: Offense should be at a premium as Carlson returns All-FNV performers Cody Britt and Jaishaun Williams to go along with 4 returning linemen. Expect the Marauders to be in the thick of the Downriver League race. Weeks 8 (Lakeland) and 9 (Woodhaven) will go a long way in determining if Carlson can be a factor in the Division 3 playoffs.
