2017-18 Basic Flag Football Capsule

BASIC

Head coach: Dave Durham, third season

2016-17 record: 6-12 (2-8 Southeast, fifth)

Returning letter winners (starters): Five (three)

Top players: QB Marissa Owens (Sr.), RB Kelsie Weber (Jr.)

Outlook: Owens, who threw for 2,122 yards and 25 touchdowns and ran for 650 yards last season, and Weber (1,054 rushing yards) are among five returning letter winners for the Wolves, who hope to contend for a playoff spot.

“We are young and inexperienced,” Durham said. “We will improve as we get a few games into the season.”
