Season Outlook: With a brand new head coach, North Star will look to bond and compete every game.  Solid senior leadership will lead a young team, but the offensive and defensive lines have a lot of size.  Numerous skill position players are on the roster for the Navigators.  There will be a battle for starting jobs at quarterback, running back and linebacker.  The Gators have seven returning starters on offense and only four on defense.
