Bennett Looks For A Return To Recent Glory

August 22, 2017 Posted by Matt Pencek Featured Sports, Football, Local Sports

An improved offense will be key if James M. Bennett is to have a winning season. The Clippers are one year removed from a City Title and playoff season. In 2016, Bennett averaged 8.7 points in their final seven games.

To help increase the offense production, the Clippers will rely on one of the fastest players on the roster, senior running back Diondre Carter who has been clocked at 4.65 seconds in the 40 yard dash.

“Diondre Carter didn’t necessarily start the season at running back but took over towards the end of the season,” Offensive Coordinator Dustin Mills said.
