Update - Legend offensive lineman Logan White
How has everything with the football season been going so far?
“I feel our season is going well, of course we have had some crushing losses to some great teams, but I feel each loss has taught us something and made us better.”
Have you been pleased with how you have played this season?
“I think I have played very well this season. Comparing myself now from my sophomore season on varsity I think I’ve made a lot of improvements when it comes to my game.”
How do you feel your team has played?
“My team has played very well, with the new edition on defense of Jeff Baca, I feel our D has only gotten better since that move. On offense all things have been clicking for us.”
What do you feel your team can improve on?
“We’re a very young team, we’ve flipped the script from last year, last year we only had two non-senior starters being Gavin Taylor and I. We definitely have a lot to work on just like everyone else does.”
What are the keys for your team being successful going forward?
“I’ve noticed a trend with all of our wins, our wins come from when we start out fast, stick to our jobs, and execute 11 as one. Those are the keys to us winning.”

“We as a team will be more successful as soon as practice is taken more seriously.”

What are the keys for your team being successful going forward?
“The biggest keys for us being successful in the future are to play as a team and trust in one another. If we all play together and have that trust factor that each and every person will do their job on every play, we will be very successful.”
