Rutledge reflects on football season

Charger football ended its season Thursday night with a 42-0 loss to Jackson Heights. While the team struggled to a 1-8 record, coach Jess Rutledge saw a lot of progress for the football program. How did the football program move forward this season? “Our offseason work that was put in exceeded any previous season since I have been at Wabaunsee. Our numbers in the weight room, at team camp, and at our thud camps were all higher than last year. Our athletes' maxes also increased a phenomenal amount from the summer of 2018. That needs to continue to improve, but we are most definitely on the right track. We also had a lot of younger players step into varsity playing positions, and that is a great thing to have for the upcoming season.

The football team is off to a promising start, with a current record of 4-2 and a combined total of 176 points in 6 games. “This season has been great,” eighth grader Zach Frank said. “It feels like a completely different team. The leadership and team chemistry are definitely a lot better than last year.”
