Season outlook: The KVAC B schedule is always full of solid teams. The Phoenix lost a ton of talent in the offseason, and at all positions. One of the strengths of this team, though, is its depth, not only on the field, but off of it. A new coach hasn’t slowed that depth down, either, with nine incoming freshmen to solidify the JV program. Look for another solid season from this group.
