Wilson still top dog in Section One
Team: Wilson
Class: 6A
Head coach: Doug Dahms (115-18)
Different year. Same narrative. The Bulldogs will undoubtedly be the favorite to once again claim the Section One crown, and why shouldn’t they be? They haven’t lost a section game since October of 2007 when folks were showing off their first generation iPhones.
Yes, Wilson will have to reload quite a bit but that is nothing out of the ordinary. Expect more of a workload for senior tailback Timmy O’Brien, who is the most experienced returning rusher with 189 yards and four touchdowns in 2015. The quarterback position could still be up in the air with juniors Grayson Kline and Connor Uhrig both seeing very limited action last season.
Until proven otherwise, the Bulldogs are still the big dog in Section One.
