The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel is out with its Woodland Conference football preview, and the newspaper has pegged South Milwaukee as slight favorites in the Woodland Conference East Division.
Here is the preview. And here is the outlook for the team …
The Rockets are slight favorites to win the division ahead of Whitnall. Defense will be the team’s strength with first-team all-division pick Honerlaw anchoring the line. Another positive is the return of Oliden, who passed for 991 yards and ran for 549 last season as a first-year starter. Top concerns? Developing the offensive line and receiving corps.
South Milwaukee (5-4 overall and 5-3 in the league last year) opens its season Friday at Shorewood/Messmer. The Rockets’ home opener is Friday, August 30, against Westosha Central. See the full schedule here.
