Season Opener Looms
The University Charter Trailblazers are gearing up for the opening week of the season, marking the start of a campaign that will test their mettle against a formidable opponent.
Coach Sam Mosley, now in his eighth year at the helm, brings a wealth of experience after guiding the team to a 9‑2 record and an unbeaten region run last season, only to see their playoff hopes dashed by Southern Choctaw in a 26‑12 loss.
The first test will be on the road, as the Trailblazers travel to face the Hubbertville Lions on August 21, a matchup that pits Mosley’s squad against a team he describes as exceptionally talented, boasting double‑digit returning juniors.
Linebacker and wide receiver Josiah DuBose, a vocal advocate for the team’s chemistry, has emphasized the close relationships that have developed among the players, noting that those bonds could prove decisive on the field.
With the season opener looming, the Trailblazers hope to translate their off‑season preparation into a strong performance that sets the tone for a year that could see them contend for deeper playoff runs.
