CABARRUS WARRIORS
Head Coach: Jamie Bolton (3rd year as Cabarrus Warriors’ head coach).
2021 Record: 10-2 Conference: NCISAA Western Football Conference/Division II.
Returning Starters: 11 (6 offense; 5 defense).
Returning Lettermen: 23 Key Returning Starters: Tyler Green, Jr., QB (6-1, 205); Will Jones, Jr., RB (5-10, 198); Gavin Powell, Jr., WR (6-0, 180); Hayes Galloway, Jr., OL/DL (6-4, 305); Amir Morocco, Jr., CB (5-10, 175).
Other Key Returnees: N/A.
Key Newcomers: Grant Springate, So., WR (6-0, 170); Colin “Deuce” Reese, Jr., WR (5-10, 165); Henry Anthony, So., TE (6-3, 205); Isaiah Neal, Jr., OL (5-11, 250).
Outlook: The Cougars are a team on the rise with 15 wins in two years under Bolton, including a 10-win NCISAA Division II state championship season in 2021. This season, Cannon School should be a legitimate threat to repeat with 11 starters back. The Cougars’ offense, which averaged 40 points per game last season, has several key pieces back including all-state junior quarterback Tyler Green (2,713 yards passing, 33 touchdowns), Will Jones (1,943 yards rushing, 26 touchdowns) and Gavin Powell (34 catches). The defense is led by all-conference cornerback, Amir Morocco (four interceptions).
