Head Coach: Dan Salig Jr.

Coaching Staff: Jim Brown, Michael Skrinjar, Jess Krulick, Bill Pitts, Aaron Boston, Tim Smith, Bryant Nestor, Jeff Boston

Last year’s record: 2-8

Summary: Southern has 19 returning letterwinners and will utilize QB Mike McVay and RB Nathan Melhorn (922 yards rushing last season) to make the offense go. Four offensive linemen return, including three-year lettermen Chris Weeda and Tony Pastore. There’s a lot of experience in the defensive backfield but there are some question marks in the front seven. The Indians are aiming for a winning season.

Returning Lettermen: Michael McVay, Andrew Diaz, Dylan Puckett, Nathan Melhorn, Adam Kelly, Bryan Brinker, Cody Gibson, Tyler Haddox, Dustin Pitts, Anthony Kastor, Scott Brown, Tony Pastore, Chris Weeda, Bowan Pitts
