Assistant Coaches:

JH Coaches: Matt Soberg and Adam DeVall  

We return 11 letterwinners from last year's 9-14 team. We look to build off of last season's success where we won our first AA playoff game since making the jump to AA in 2018. We return 7 guys who have multiple years of varsity experience. Our depth, along with our experience should make us very competitive in every game this year. Go Huskies!
