The Stagg football family is mourning the loss of 2020 alum, Yousef Saleh. He was a hard worker and always looked out for his teammates. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family.
Could not be prouder of our guys tonight! Tons of adversity the past few weeks but never gave up on what we are trying to do and more importantly never gave up on each other!!!

Started the year with our seniors thanking their moms at our week 1 dinner. Last Thursday night we had our senior dads (or the moms that do both) come to our team dinner and talk about how proud they are of their sons! What a powerful experience. Things are happening here.

Gave them everything we had. 0-8 at the half. 0-30 final. 5-6 plays ultimately prove to be the difference in a game. Our guys MUST realize those plays R determined b/f the game is even played. Those plays are determined in practice, in meeting rooms and by watching film.
