Quotes from Athletes on the Season <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flagler Palm Coast quarterback Dennis Murray Jr.
How do you feel your team will do next football season?
\u201cI think that we have a lot to prove next year. We know we have a chance to be very good and contend in the playoffs.\u201d

What team do you feel will be the toughest competition on your schedule?
\u201cI think that Mainland will be our toughest competition since they are coming off of their state championship run.\u201d

Who is the toughest individual player your team will face off against?
\u201cJames Randall.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

——————————————————<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flagler Palm Coast linebacker Rodney Hill
How do you feel your team will do next football season?
\u201cI feel that my football team would do a lot better this year because we have a lot of returning starters on both sides of the ball. With that being said the returning starters would be able to do a better job of coaching up the underclassmen to do the right things, such as reading the right keys, running the right routes, making the right calls.\u201d

What team do you feel will be the toughest competition on your schedule?
\u201cOur football schedule hasn’t come out yet.\u201d

Who is the toughest individual player your team will face off against?
\u201cN\/A.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

——————————————————<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flagler Palm Coast defensive end Colby Cronk
How do you feel your team will do next football season?
\u201cI think we can build off of our successes this past season and improve in some areas to do even better next year. With the work we\u2019re putting in right now, it looks like we\u2019ll be on track for a successful season.\u201d

What team do you feel will be the toughest competition on your schedule?
\u201cPonte Vedra and Nease are the most important because they are district games. Mainland will probably be the toughest.\u201d

Who is the toughest individual player your team will face off against?
\u201cWe play a lot of talented teams and players. It\u2019s very difficult to single just one out. I\u2019m not sure about the whole team, but I know for myself that Jake Guarnera, an offensive lineman for Ponte Vedra, might be the best opponent I know I would go against.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
