Season outlook: The Vikings lost a good crew of seniors from last year’s quarterfinals-bound team, but the core group remains intact, and there is a lot of talent left in this stable. The Vikings are well-positioned to make a run at a top-four finish and a playoff win or two. Strength from the back end, out, will be key for Oxford Hills this season.
