The Legacy Charter football team is looking forward to the beginning of the football season. 

With Ryan Locuson as the Eagles new head coach, the boys are training hard to have a successful 2022-23 season. 

“They’ve been working all summer,” Locuson said. “It’s time to see that work pay off. Let’s keep driving, keep working hard, have pride in yourself, have pride in the school, have pride in this team and do everything you can do to be the next guy.” 

Despite having a few changes in the coaching staff, the team is confident the work done during the offseason will serve them well. 

The Eagles will be having some tough weeks during the season, but until they get on the field, there is no way to know how their opponents will play. 

“They may be tough on paper, but they can be completely different when they get on the field,” Locuson said. 

Some key players to watch this season are quarterback Liam Lamprect, who has excellent football knowledge and has stepped up in the leadership role; Kyle Dorsey, an excellent all-around player who has been working hard prior to entering his senior year; and Matthew Kelley on the defense side, who promises a well-rounded performance. 

“If we lose, it stinks, but let’s drive forward,” Locuson said. “Always look forward. Never look back.”
