GV student-athletes can participate in two sports to help Grand View build on its winning tradition. Dual sport participation gives student-athletes a chance to compete year-round.

The Vikings football team concluded its spring training with an intrasquad scrimmage last Friday night at Johnston High School. The young Grand View squad improved tremendously over the year and made great strides offensivley and defensively in preparaton for the 2009 season.

"We arrived last fall in a brand new program trying to adjust to each other as coaches and players. A sense of identity is very important on offense. There were some positives in the fall, but we feel as though we are much more developed with the progress we made in the past three or four weeks. With one year of experience gained, we're really excited to see what we can become in the fall," said Viking Offensive Coordinator Pete Sterbick.

 

 

 

The Grand View football team is getting a jump on training for next season. The Vikings' spring training has commenced and the players and coaches are seeing positive results.

"Practice is going very well. Great attitudes. We are improving in all areas and the competition for positions is intense. We are bigger and stronger," said head coach Mike Woodley.
