Returning Rockford Boylan players are convinced they can bounce back this season
Boylan High School very rarely goes through head coaching changes, but the Titans are this year. Joel Beard is the guy now, a coach with a lot of college coaching experience in his background at the junior college level.
Boylan High School's Titan football team is preparing for another season under new head coach Joel Beard. Beard, who has experience in college coaching, is eager to lead his team with an explosive, high-scoring offense. Senior linebacker and tight end Nick Polivka, in his fourth year, has noticed that Coach Beard is working them hard during the summer, but he is excited for the upcoming season.
Last year, Boylan finished with a 2-7 record, leading to several key players transferring to other schools. However, the Titans are confident in their current roster and believe they have the talent to have a successful season. The defensive unit is led by the strong outside linebackers Eyzaiah Campos and Keaton Hampl, who missed most of last season with an injury but is ready to make an impact.
Inside linebacker Henry Maier and offensive linemen Erick Becerra and Edy Espinoza will also be crucial to the defense. On offense, senior quarterback Michael Davenport, along with tight end Jake Fowler and receiver Mikele Sims (who is transitioning from basketball), will be key players. Sam Bland and Campos will handle most of the work on running plays, while the linemen will provide the necessary blocking.
The Titans are eager to showcase their explosive playmakers, as Coach Beard envisioned, and will be looking to bounce back from last season's struggles.
