As the new season approaches, the Loara High School football team is gearing up for what is sure to be an exhilarating and challenging year. We had the opportunity to sit down with Coach Gary Wright to get an inside look at this year's team and what fans can expect to see on the field. Coach Wright is no stranger to the Loara program, having been with the team for several years now. He explains that this season, the team is focused on rebuilding a once proud program. With the goal of improving and building a strong team for the future, Coach Wright and his team are determined to put in the work and effort necessary to make this season a successful one. When asked about the top returning players from last season, Coach Wright didn't hesitate to name a few key players. Junior Ariel Olvera, the team's top running back, is expected to make a big impact this season. Coaches are also looking to juniors Jorge Rodriguez and Michael Rito as the top receivers on the team. On the defensive side, sophomore linebacker Briand Torres is a standout player who is expected to make a big impact this season. These players possess unique qualities that make them stand out on the field. Whether it's their speed, agility, strength, or leadership abilities, these players are key components in the team's success. Coach Wright also stresses the importance of their dedication and selflessness. He looks for players who are always present and committed to pushing themselves and their teammates to be better. In terms of team chemistry and camaraderie, Coach Wright believes in a strong sense of dedication and selflessness. He encourages players to be present and supportive of their teammates, creating a positive and encouraging environment both on and off the field. This mindset not only strengthens the team's bond but also drives them to work harder towards their common goal. Preparing for a new season always presents challenges, and for Loara High School, it's no different. This year, the team is facing the challenge of having a young and inexperienced roster. With a large number of seniors graduating from the previous season, Coach Wright is looking to the remaining upperclassmen to step up and take on leadership roles. He explains that the key to overcoming this challenge is for the team to "grow up fast" and adjust quickly to the demands of varsity football. The team's schedule this season is no walk in the park. They are facing tough opponents week after week, and the competition is fierce.
