After earning their first play­off victory in eight years last season, Community H.S. foot­ball is hoping to use the offsea­son to set the program up for success in 2021.

In his first full offseason since joining the Braves last spring, coach Dustin Blann said he ap­preciates having the full offsea­son this year, hoping to build on his postseason appearance.

“We are in a much more comfortable position this year,” Blann said. “Compared to last year, we were just kind of hit­ting the ground running because we didn’t have an off season, so we [struggled] trying to make all those accommodations due to the pandemic. It’s nice to be able to feel really good about what you did during the spring and have more of a normal sum­mer coming up.”
