Seniors

Welcome, Laker fans, to the 2017 football season! TheLakers have been spending the better part of the summergearing up for the home opener. The summer workoutsincluded 12 days of camp, three days a week in the weightroom and two 7-on-7 tournaments. The Lakers traveled to JFK stadium in late June and competed in the OzarkConference (OC) 7-on-7 tournament. The Lakers walkedaway with an undefeated record and OC 7-on-7 champs.The 12 days of camp provided each player the opportunityto learn and compete for a starting spot this fall on Fridaynights. The coaching staff has been very pleased with theeffort and the attitude of this year’s team. This year’s Lakers welcome a new coach to our staff. Former LakerBrett Eidson will be taking care of our punters, kickers,snappers, and holders. Coach Eidson was part of the1999 State Championship Football team, punted in college, and was a kicking instructor with Kohls kickingcamp. Another addition that everyone will notice August18th is the new turf and new scoreboard. The Lakers areextremely grateful to the donors for their contributions toward the new scoreboard. We would also like to thankthe school board and patrons for approving our new turf.Once again, thank you!! We are looking forward to putting on the helmets and getting after it…….HOG STYLE!

This year’s group of Laker Football players will featuremany returning starters from last year. Let’s get startedintroducing this year’s group of players to you. And, asusual, we start with the HOGS! The HOGS are the backbone and lifeline of our offense. They set the tonewith their physical and dominating attitude. This year’soffensive line returns two starters from last year - HarrisonBrownell and Josh Semau. Brownell will take care of thesnaps; Semau will play tackle. Chazz Sawyers will playthe other tackle. Our guards are Connor Whitney and JonLumley. While these players have been receiving most of the reps, others are working hard to see some action on Friday nights. Camden Pitts, Holden Looney, ZachTrusty, Josh Harmon, Mason Kinney, Riley Stidham,Austin Rippe, Marlin Briggs, Jacob Lansford, JeremiahWilkens, Dex Heier, Marcus Stephens, Ethan McDaniel,and Louis Powers are improving each day. These HOGS

will be counted on to lead the JV offense into the endzone each Monday night and get a handful of plays in on Friday night.

This year’s running back corps is a very familiar group.Jay Griffin, who rushed for over 1,200 yards last season,will return. He will share the load with Todd Simpson,who will play tailback and fullback this year. Seth Harrisand Andrew Butts will get their share of carries also. Bo Shore, Garrett Stamper, and Ryan Maasen will plowthe way at the fullback position. Jeremy Bernabe, KylerWilson, Tyler Damery, Elias Ramirez, and Josef Bernabewill see plenty of action on Monday nights during JVgames.

Our receiving corps is experienced and ready to haul in the TD passes this season. At split end, Jake Hill and Matt Lawson will see most of the action. JacksonEzard, Gabe Kurtz, and Jase Nicklas will compete forthe slot back position. They will be called on to notonly receive passes but also block up front. Our tightends (½ HOG - ½ Candy) include Grant Norton, LukeRasmussen, and Mason Bowles. Our JV receivinggroup includes Kyle Boatman, Tyler Hunter, Brady Kopiske, Jackson Rideout, Trenton Flug, Jaben Shockley, Ethan Harris, and Connor Thomas.

This year’s field general will be Isaiah Lumley. Isaiah has some solid varsity experience at quarterback from last year. Our younger QBs include Cash Calton, Colin Thomas, and Paxton DeLaurent.

Laker Football

The Lakers’ kicking responsibilities will be handled by a variety of players. Coleman Baker and Luke Galbreathhave strong and accurate legs. Coleman and Luke will be competing for the field goal and kickoff duties. Seth Harris and Rasmussen will be battling it out for the punting job.

Next up, The Purple Haze. The Laker defense brings back a host of starters from last year’s squad. We willstart up front with the HOGS, of course. Brownell,Semau, Norton, Whitney, and Sawyers will anchor the interior defensive line and create havoc in the opponent’s

backfield. Jacob Morgan, Lathan Wise, Wilkens, Kinney,Stephens, Trusty, Briggs, Lansford, McDaniel, Pitts, Jake Scarey, and Powers will all be competing for a fewplays on Friday night and will take most of the snaps on Monday night.

Lined up just behind our HOGS will be the linebackers.We have both returning starters from last year, Simpsonand Rasmussen. Maasen, Stidham, and Looney are just a step behind our anticipated starters. Josef Bernabe, Jeremy Bernabe, Rippe, and Boatman will be plugging up the run lanes for our JV team on Mondays.

Our defensive ends are both returning from last year also.Shore and Ezard will have the job of keeping everythinginside. Bowles, Wilson, Connor Thomas, Heier, andColten Glawson will be competing for some snaps on Friday.

The last line of defense, our defensive backs, will havesome new faces this year. At safety, we have Kurtz, Hill,Griffin, Stamper, and Shockley competing for starting positions. Cory Eskridge, Hunter, and Flug will getplenty of experience on Mondays. At the corner position,Butts, Seth Harris, Lawson, Calton, and Nicklas will becompeting for snaps on Friday nights. Malone, Rideout,Ethan Harris, and Talon Randazzo will be defending thepass for the JV Lakers.

This year’s schedule is in the Lakers’ favor with five home games and four away games. The Ozark Conference is one of the toughest conferences in southwest Missouri. Each year, a couple of teams fromthe OC make a strong run deep into the playoffs. TheLakers fully anticipate being one of those teams this year - one play at a time, one game at a time, as a team.We open our season at home against the Hillcrest Hornets. Week two will see the West Plains Zizzers traveling to Bob Shore Stadium. The Lakers then travel to Lebanon in week three to take on the Yellowjackets. In week four, the Lakers welcome Kickapoo to the JOD.The Lakers will then travel to Springfield Parkview for a week five showdown. Next, the Rolla Bulldogs willcome to Lakertown in week six. Weeks seven and eight will have the Lakers on the road. In week seven, the Lakers will travel east on I-44 to play arch rival Waynesville Tigers. In week eight, the Lakers travel west on 44, down to Joplin. This will be the last regularseason meeting between these two teams as Joplin will be moving conferences in 2018. Finally, the Lakers will host the high-powered offense of the Glendale Falcons. Week ten will begin District play. Our seeding will determine who and where we play.

We are extremely grateful and blessed to be part of theLaker family. Every former player, coach, alumni, andfan is an integral part to our success. Parents - thank you for allowing your son to be part of the Laker tradition. The time and effort you put in getting your son to practice and feeding the team is gratefully appreciated. We look forward to seeing the stands filled with our faithful following each Friday night.

GO LAKERS and……..GO HOGS!!!!
