WHAT TO WATCH FOR:
Expectations for Team - Grimley will be one of the younger clubs in the NC 4A. Carter Jeanbaptiste, Clay Rosser, and Sebastian Rodriguez are talented and should provide a spark to a club that will look to get better each week and play spoiler in the Metro 4A.
Expected Team Strength - We have some unknowns going into this season. As we will most likely be a younger group at our core. Our young players show up and work and do bring a great attitude and energy to our program.
QUOTE FROM THE COACH:
I'm excited to see how our young talent can compete for us. We have solid senior leadership that I feel can really help us.
