Biggest Question facing Burlington Central this fall?
Can the Rockets find success soon in the Fox Valley? Burlington Central and head coach Byron Melvin have been looking to crack the upper tier of the rugged FVC over the past handful of years. The Rockets posted a 1-4 record and will welcome back several returning starters this fall which is a real positive. If the Rockets can find a way to matchup against some heavy hitters in the conference and pull off an upset or two...they could end up being a possible state playoff caliber team down the line.
Impact Player for Burlington Central:
Senior RB/LB Gavin Sarvis. Sarvis was a fo it all for the Rockets for the past few seasons and enters his senior season with a chance to put up some big numbers along with becoming more of a leader for the Rockets this fall. If Burlington Central is going to win it's way towards the upper portion of the FVC, I expect Sarvis to have a big fall season.
Game to Watch this Fall? Week 2 vs Prairie Ridge
This would certainly not be a be all or end all type of game for Burlington Central, yet anytime you play Prairie Ridge you can expect a very physical and hard hitting game. This will no question be a big test for the Rockets heading into the remainder of the regular season schedule.
