Congratulations to Brett McDermott for being signed as a free agent with the Colts of the NFL. Brett attended the rookie camp last week and is still listed on their active roster for 2009.
Rookie Camp went very well and Brett has been invited back to the Colts for Optional workouts next week and he will attend the June mini-camp for all players (veterans/rookies).

Brett graduated from MHS in 2005 after playing three years in our football program. Brett was a back-up JV player in his sophomore year, a JV starter as a junior and became an All-League, All-Scholastic and Shriner's All-Star as a senior. Brett had an outstanding career at Holy Cross over the last four years. Brett attended this year's banquet as our guest speaker.

GOALS OF THE CAMP: PLAYERS WILL BE INSTRUCTED IN THE FUNDAMENTALS OF THE GAME OF FOOTBALL IN A POSITIVE AND ENJOYABLE ATMOSPHERE. THEY WILL LEARN THE TECHNIQUES OF BLOCKING, RUNNING, TACKLING, PASS RECEIVING, PASSING AND STANCES. THE PLAYERS WILL BE INTRODUCED TO BASIC PLAYS ON OFFENSE AND BASIC DEFENSIVE STANCES AND ALIGNMENTS.

THE CAMP IS OPEN TO ALL LEVELS OF EXPERIENCE AND THE EMPHASIS IS ON LEARNING, SAFETY, IMPROVEMENT AND ENJOYMENT.

NO PREVIOUS FOOTBALL EXPERIENCE IS NECESSARY!

TEAMWORK AND A POSITIVE ATTITUDE ARE ALSO A MAJOR FOCUS OF THE CAMP PHILOSOPHY.

WE WANT THESE PLAYERS TO LEAVE THE CAMP WITH A SOLID FOUNDATION OF KNOWLEDGE TO BEGIN THEIR HIGH SCHOOL CAREERS WHEN THEY REACH THE FRESHMEN LEVEL!
