J-Hawks looking to take next step
The Jefferson J-Hawks took a big step forward last season when they won four games and reached the Class 4A playoffs after years of futility.
Now they want to take the next step in their development with a winning record and deeper run in the playoffs.
"I think it's very important, just to keep the tide going. We are definitely wanting to do that," said quarterback Jared Eivins, who missed the 2014 campaign with a shoulder injury. "We just have to give it our full effort."
The J-Hawks came close to having a winning record last season, but were foiled in near-misses against Prairie (17-14) and Waterloo West (23-17). They muffed golden opportunities to win those games with big mistakes at the wrong time.
The four victories and trip to the playoffs were a nice reward for all their hard work, but Coach Brian Webb thinks they could have accomplished a lot more.
