After a first year coaching the Chelsea Bulldogs and taking them all the way to the finals, and Ford Field, Josh Lucas is ready to get better.


“We worked on getting better in the weight room during the off season and now we are at the point where we just want to get better every day,” Lucas said.
 
Chelsea key football players include; Kyle knight SR QB; Mitch Reynolds SR WR/TB; Brennan VanRiper RB; Josiah Fitch SR OL; Daniel Golding SR DL; Mason Pustay SR DL; Sam Michael SR LB; Corbin Steele JR LB.
Other key players are Joe Taylor JR FS; Ross Stofflet SR WR.
Key newcomers are Brennan Westcott JR DL and Vinny Yado SR DB Ryan Baries JR OL. “All of our games are important,” he said. “Dexter, Pinckney, Jackson, and Lincoln are big Sec white games.
 
Lucas is excited about the year. “We want to work on getting better in the trenches every day,” he said. “We return a lot of guys that played last year in the state finals. We return Joe Taylor at FS and Daniel Golding, Sam Michael Corbin Steele on defense. Offensively we return Kyle Knight, Josiah Fitch, Mitch Reynolds, Ross Stofflet and Brennan Vanriper.”
New things this year include: Same mindset as last year,” he added. “Get better every day and do the little things. “We feel we always have the targets on our back and kids kind of have that mentality,” he said.
“We just want to take one game at time, and control what we can control.”
The season starts against Dexter for the first game, Friday August 30 at 7. The Bulldogs are not to be underestimated. Look for good things again this year.
