The Farmers defied all the preseason predictions by finishing with a winning record and going three rounds deep in the playoffs.

“I couldn’t be anymore proud of how we finished the season. If you would have asked me before the start of the season if we would go 11-2, I would have told you that would be tough. To be able to do that and go three rounds in the playoffs was great,” head coach Sammy Burnett said.
