LAKELAND - Kathleen football has it's work cut out for it.  With the loss of key players this upcoming summer, a young group of players will look to try and continue the team's recent success.

"You don't realize how much you've lost until you look around," Head Coach Irving Strickland said. "I'm wondering, who's going to be our playmaker now?"

The answer, just might be their new starting quarterback, Roddrick Haynes.

"It's pretty exciting," Haynes said. "I feel confident. I got a great head coach.  As long as I do what he says, we should be great."

"I went to Roddrick and told him he'd have to step up and play quarterback this spring," Strickland said. "He said, 'coach, I got this.'"

It's a tough hurdle to overcome, but the Red Devils are confident they can do it.

"You can never write off a team," Defensive lineman Freud Senat said.

You never know how a team will bounce back."
