Still counting..
30 days still seems too long, but thankfully football starts today!! That’s right, the newcomers have already reported and today at 6:15 AM the Wildcats hit Salpointe Catholic High School for their first practice of fall camp.

Golden Touch

Defense
On the defensive side of the ball, things are not as impressive. The Wildcats only return 3 defensive starters, opposed to 10 on offense, and have to move on without
