    After graduating seven seniors from last year's 9-8-4 team, Boys' Soccer Head Coach Greg Conley will have to rely on youth this season.

    After looking like a region contender last season, the Marion County High School boys golf team fell victim to tough conditions at the region to finish short of their goal of going to state. This year, they look to rebound.

    Gone are seniors Tommy Carrico and Joseph George, two of the top golfers from last year's squad. Three of the top five from last year remain, however, and look to lead the Knights this season.

    Brian Loper, Joseph Elder and Taylor Brady return to avenge last season.
