CLAREMORE SEQUOYAH EAGLES
Coach – ROB GILBREATH
OFFENSE
Building on the success of 2020, head coach Rob Gilbreath is excited to see what this group can accomplish with several key players returning to the lineup. “Should be an exciting year,” said Gilbreath. “We are coming off a winning season and have a lot if the pieces returning. Hopefully COVID will not affect our playoff run this season. Last year it ended it for us.” Logan Hattaway (5-10, 170, Jr.) rushed for 1,000 yards last season and is expected to be the featured back in 2021. Josh Harwell (6-0, 165, Sr.) added over 600 yards rushing giving the Eagles a nice one-two punch, out of the backfield. Dawson Rudd (6-5, 270, Sr.) is a big reason the running game was successful last year. Add Jacob Helt (6-2, 170, Sr.) to the offensive line and you have the nucleus of a solid unit up front. Brett Burks (6-0, 160, Jr.) will likely quarterback the Eagles this season after accounting for more than 500 yards passing. Dylan Piquet (5-8, 160, Jr.) is an all-around athlete the Eagles will use in multiple ways on offense.
DEFENSE
Harwell will start at linebacker on defense giving the Eagles someone who can run down running backs and make plays sideline-to-sideline. Rudd will start at defensive end with Helt. Both guys can disrupt opposing offenses and set the edge. Rudd is quick off the ball for a big guy and plays a fast, aggressive style. Caleb Harwell (6-0, 165, Jr.) will start at safety next to Carson Bickel (6-5, 170, Jr.). Both guys play downhill and cover very well. Saggie Hicks (6-0, 300, Jr.) is the run stopper in the middle of the defensive line. The Eagles will base in the 4-4. The coaching staff consists of Brannon Feese, Brad Farrow, Russell Morgan, Jesse Dorsch, Mike McClure and Javar Lewis.
