The Bears made giant strides in the building of the football program in 2017. In only the third year of competition the Bears have gone from 3 wins to 5 wins to 9 wins and we have watched our team grow up during this time. The three loses on the year came to teams that advanced to the playoffs and the Bears competed well in every game.
