The News Tribune published its fall preps football preview today and the sports reporters had some nice things to say about CWA’s football program. Take a look at this article before heading out to the first game of the season tomorrow night. CWA faces Tacoma Baptist at home on Friday, September 3, at 7pm.

CHARLES WRIGHT TARRIERS
Head coach: Mike Finch, third season
Coordinators, Sets
O: Neil Biermann, spread
D: Finch, 4-4

Top players: OG/DT Michael Kane, sr., 6-3, 245; WR/FS Patrick Dale, sr., 6-1, 150; RB/WR/CB Marcquel Hawkins, sr., 5-10, 175; WR Alexander Moore, fr., 6-0, 165.
