It\u2019s crazy how intense our practices are and I am really eager to see how things work out,\u201d Hewes said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Scouting report<\/strong><br \/>\nSpeed and athleticism are Hewes\u2019 main assets. In track and field, he combined the two to be one of the top hurdlers in District 2 Class AA. For this football season, he will be counted on to use those abilities to first and foremost get the Meteors running again on offense and more aggressive on defense.<\/p>\n<p>Last season, he showed flashes of that ability when he ran for a team-high 659 yards and three touchdowns.<br \/>\n\u201cHe runs really hard. He runs well in between the tackles and guards. If we can block well for him and we can get him the ball, he can do well. He is an amazing kid. He has been at practice every day working hard.\u201d<br \/>\n\u2014 Lou Cella Montrose coach<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/independentweekender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/WGSI_Montrosefootball.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-13312\" alt=\"WGSI_Montrosefootball\" src=\"http:\/\/independentweekender.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/WGSI_Montrosefootball-300x266.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"266\" srcset=\"https:\/\/psowegomedia.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/WGSI_Montrosefootball-300x266.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psowegomedia.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/WGSI_Montrosefootball.jpg 475w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>QUARTERBACK<\/strong><br \/>\nIt is important in coach Cella\u2019s triple-option offense that he teaches and is dedicated to, for the quarterback to be fearless, poised and determined. Pat Parks has experience after starting last season, however, he was used mostly as a throwing quarterback. His responsibilities will change dramatically as timing and running the ball is the new name of the game.<\/p>\n<p><strong>BACKS<\/strong><br \/>\nIn addition to Hewes, the Meteors also return running back Austin Cook, who will shift from a receiver where he had 38 yards receiving last season to a running back in the option offense. Bob Purdy is also expected to play a bigger role in the running game this season.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RECEIVERS<\/strong><br \/>\nWhile never known as a pass-happy offensive team, Montrose will likely be drawing in the reigns even more now. Still, there are options in the passing game as Jack Fruehan returns with some experience as a receiver.<\/p>\n<p><strong>OFFENSIVE LINE<\/strong><br \/>\nMontrose took a bit of a hit by graduation, losing LFC Division III first-team all-star Brenton Warner, along with three other starters. Matt Legg is the only returning player with experience. J.J. Heft is expected to have an impact this season. The Meteors do have some linemen depth.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DEFENSIVE LINE<\/strong><br \/>\nThe story is much the same on the defensive side. Only Legg returns, and while there has been a lot of buzz surrounding the new offense for Montrose, the more pressing issues will come on defense, especially on the line of scrimmage.<\/p>\n<p><strong>LINEBACKERS<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Meteors had a tough time against the run last season giving up an average of 232.9 yards per game on the ground, but Hewes and Fruehan both return with experience.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DEFENSIVE BACKS<\/strong><br \/>\nDefending the pass was not a strong suit for the Meteors last season. They gave up more than 130 yards per game. Both Parks and Cook started last season and are expected to help this unit improve.<\/p>\n<p><strong>KICKING<\/strong><br \/>\nMontrose did attempt many extra points last season, but it will have to replace starter Troy Ely.<\/p>\n<p>Head coach: Lou Cella (0-0, 1st season)<br \/>\nDivision: LFC II<br \/>\nLast season: 1-9 overall; 1-4 in LFC III<br \/>\nMale enrollment: 211, Class AA<br \/>\nHome field: Memorial Stadium<br \/>\n<strong>TEAM TITLES<\/strong><br \/>\nL FC III: 1998<br \/>\nSuburban: 1992, 1994<br \/>\nEC Class AA: 1966<\/p>\n<p><strong>SCHEDULE<\/strong><br \/>\nOct. 29 at Meyers<br \/>\nSept. 5 Carbondale Area<br \/>\nSept. 12 at Lackawanna Trail<br \/>\nSept. 20 at Holy Cross, 1 p.m.<br \/>\nSept. 26 Susquehanna<br \/>\nOct. 3 at Lakeland<br \/>\nOct. 10 Western Wayne<br \/>\nOct. 17 Riverside<br \/>\nOct. 24 Dunmore<br \/>\nOct. 31 at Honesdale<\/p>\n<p><strong>2013 RESULTS<\/strong><br \/>\nCarbondale Area L, 34-0<br \/>\nLake-Lehman L, 60-0<br \/>\nTunkhannock L, 41-0<br \/>\nHonesdale L, 21-0<br \/>\nWestern Wayne L, 41-20<br \/>\nOld Forge L, 49-6<br \/>\nSusquehanna L, 35-0<br \/>\nHoly Cross W, 35-14<br \/>\nLackawanna Trail L, 34-0<br \/>\nNorthwest L, 46-0<\/p>\n<p><strong>RETURNING LEADERS<\/strong><br \/>\nRUSHING Att Yds Avg.
