Outlook for season: After losing to Saratoga in the Sectional semifinals last year, the Blue Bison are looking to get back to the Super Bowl for the first time since 2016.

“If our offensive line comes together and we fight the injury bug that plagued us last season,” we will do well, said Sheeler.
