The Independence Bulldogs are nearing the end of their first full week of practice, with head coach Kendall Fiscus and his team scheduled for another session this Friday at 7. 

 

Fiscus is entering his fourth season as Independence's head coach after coming to the program from Phillipsburg, bringing plenty of experience to a Bulldogs team still searching for its first winning season under his direction. 

 

Fiscus says the Bulldogs have solid numbers heading into the season and will have their largest senior class since he took over the program. 

 

Along with that senior group, Fiscus says Independence has a versatile group of athletes capable of making an impact at multiple positions across the field. 

 

Size may not be the Bulldogs' biggest advantage, particularly up front, but Fiscus will look to that versatility and experience to help Independence overcome any deficiencies along the line.
