Minor Leagues: Midget
Calgary and Area Boulton Division
Calgary Hilltoppers
We very much enjoyed the last Midget football season. We finally won our first Midget football championship last season after coming very close the year before. The coaches and players learned what it took to beat a top notch team in the Wildcats football club who had some amazing athletes and a great plan coming into the whole season as well as the final game.
Key players returning this season are our quarterback Jimmy Underdahl, our leading receiver Nik Petros and our starting RB Xavier Savery. We expect even bigger years than last from all three players. We believe we will have a veteran offensive line anchored by Sean McCewan and Ryan Preuter that will bring a very disciplined and physical presence to our offense this season. Our defence returns 3 of our 4 LBs from last year, Ty Lewis, Keven Blencowe and Alex Bennett who we believe will be the foundation to a very high energy defence that should be fun to watch this year. In addition we return 3 of our starting DBs last year including Ryan Cooper, Vince Greco and Jordan Richards, we expect these guys to grow as a unit and make some game changing plays in their last year of Hilltoppers together.
We believe we can achieve the same result as last year and we plan to have a lot of fun with this core group of players in their last year of Hilltoppers together. We believe the competition in the midget league with some coaching staff changes and a key team folding in the South will be even stronger than it was last year and we really look forward to seeing the schedule when it comes out. We have been working really hard as a coaching staff and players to get ready for this improved level of competition and believe we’re in a good position to meet our goals this season.
