Outlook: Maplewood started 2010 as one of the hottest teams in District 10. The Tigers won their first five games before struggling in the second half to miss the playoffs. Jake Snyder, Jacob Potts, Josh Davis and Daishawn Mewborn graduated leaving pretty big holes to fill for the Tigers. Nate Klingler is back after taking over as quarterback late last season. He is joined in the backfield by Kevin Coatoam, while Dakota Keeno, Eric Willey and Mitch Worley are back to anchor the offensive and defensive lines. Logan Battin is a leader for the Tigers and is a solid player on defense. Maplewood’s defense will be a strength this season but the Tigers need a few underclassmen to step into big roles on offense. Maplewood hopes to use training camp to work on fundamentals and work on offensive chemistry.
