By win-loss record, the 2024 season might seem like a forgettable campaign for the Coleman Bluecats. Coach John Elder’s squad won just four games last year, marking its lowest win total since 2019.
But lost in such a cursory examination of that season is the fact that the Bluecats rebounded from an 0-7 start to win four of their final five games, including a playoff upset of Wolfe City in the bi-district round.
With a solid group of returners from that team, including six offensive and five defensive starters, Coleman will be looking to build on that momentum this fall. And Elder is expecting the experience and confidence gained in 2024 to pay dividends a year later.
