It’s no secret that the Winters football team has struggled in recent years. Undersized compared to their peers, the Blizzards have won just three games combined over the past two seasons competing in difficult Class 2A Division I districts.

But if you think the WHS players are allowing those struggles to impact their expectations for or excitement surrounding the 2023 season, you would be mistaken.

Led by a feisty group of seniors, whose belief in coach Matt McCarty and each other remains as strong as ever, the Blizzards are hoping to turn some heads and change some minds this fall.
