High school teams begin football practice
With the onset of mid-August, high school fall sports began with football practices. Rogers City officially started practice Monday morning while Posen had their annual Midnight Madness practice at midnight Sunday. Rogers City has an increase in numbers with 24 on the varsity and 16 on the junior varsity. Coach Mike Kosiara believes practice is going well as the kids are enthusiastic, on-task and doing what they are supposed to be doing, making this group very coachable in his eyes. It became official at Monday evening?s school board meeting that Chad Coolman will return as the JV head coach.
?We should
?We are looking at 11-man and getting out there and going after it. We?ve got the core, my skill positions are back with Shane Hentkowski returning at quarterback and several receivers back. We can add all the coaches in the world, but the kids have to go out there and do it, they have to do the work,? said Karsten. Rogers City will begin their season at home against Hillman, while Posen will begin away against Cedarville. Both games will be played August 28.
