WEST POINT — The Warriors ended a brief playoff hiatus with a strong second half last season.

West Point is now hoping that momentum carries over into 2021.

The Maroon and White opened fall camp on Monday, and there was no shortage of energy as the program looks to seize a postseason berth for the sixth time under coach Don Farley, who took over back in 2013.

The Warriors host Priceville for a jamboree on Aug. 19 before welcoming in Good Hope for their season opener on Aug. 27.

Coach Speak: “We gave the guys last week off, so we’re looking for high energy this week. We had a great summer with great energy and great effort, and we felt like they needed to rest and have some time to be teenagers. So, we’re looking for high energy this week. We’re looking to fill some spots as well, and we’re always looking for depth. And really, we’re just looking to see what guys are ready to step up.” — Don Farley

“We want to have an idea of what we are going into August 19, and we want to keep developing going into Good Hope week and Lawrence County week. That way, when we get into region play, we feel like we’re dialing it in a little bit.” — Don Farley
