A Look Back
Last season there was a lot of speculation around Southlake Carroll and whether or not they could live up to being as amazing as always- especially without Quinn Ewers. Without hesitation, though, Kaden Anderson stepped into the role of quarterback and ran with it. The Dragons posted an undefeated district record (6-0) to finish at the top of their district before heading into playoffs. With an explosive offense and one of the strongest defenses in the metroplex, the Dragons held their opponents to a combined 210 points all season. The only game they lost? A 35-9 heartbreaker deep in playoffs to the eventual state runner-ups, Duncanville.
Looking Ahead
Kaden Anderson is back and ready to have an epic season. The team has been able to adjust around their new star and and put the naysayers out of the backs of their heads. Also returning to the team is star running back Owen Allen who led the Dragons in yards per game as well as touchdowns last season. Cade Parks will also be back on defense for the Dragons.
What To Expect
Usual toughness. The Dragons have all of the ingredients that it takes to dominate through the preseason as well as district play. We should see Southlake Carroll back in the playoffs. With the experience of Anderson backed up by a strong defense, fans just might see their Dragons bring home a state title this season!
