Impact Player for Providence Catholic
Providence Catholic senior safety Gavin Hagen (6-foot-1, 195 pounds) is a talented and hard hitting defender as well as a leader for the Celtics this season. Hagen, who has been on several recruiting radar screens this summer has a chance to develop into a high level player in my opinion. In many ways Hagen reminds me of former Marist and now Iowa S John Nestor.
Looking for a sleeper name to watch for Providence Catholic? Providence Catholic junior RB Xavier Coleman (6-foot-2, 200 pounds) is a big. strong and very athletic play maker who looks ready for a major breakout season in 2024.
EDGY's Preseason Thoughts on the 2024 Providence Catholic Celtics
Provid3nc3 Catholic and headn coach Tyler Plantz is looking to improve upon the Celtics 8-5 season in 2023. The Celtics in 2023 made the Class 6A state playoff field and defeated Morton, Hillcrest and Highland before losing to JCA in the Class 5A quarterfinals. Head coach Tyler Plantz has posted a 17-10 record entering his third season this fall as the Celtics head coach.
The biggest question facing Providence Catholic this summer?
Can the Celtics take the next few huge steps and win a state title in 2024? Providence Catholic welcomes back an abundance of talent for the 2024 season both at the cvarsity level as well as in the lower levels. Providence played a ton of underclassmen in 2023 (17 returning starters) and has a starting lineup that has deep varsity experience including post-season experience. Look for the Celtics to be one of the top teams in 5A/6A this season.
