The Assumption Mustangs concluded the 2025 campaign with a 2-8 record, a stark contrast to the previous season that featured a winning record and a playoff appearance. The team struggled to find consistency on both sides of the ball, slipping into two separate four-game losing streaks that ultimately cost them a postseason spot.
Looking Forward
Head coach Wil Broussard, now in his third year, will lean on senior leaders such as linebacker‑running back Reid Diaz and defensive lineman Braxton Duval, who are entering their final high school seasons. Their experience is expected to provide a foundation for a program that has been rebuilding for several years.
The 2026 schedule draws the Mustangs into a rugged district that includes matchups against Donaldsonville, Kaplan, North Iberville and other traditional rivals. Each game presents a test of depth and resilience as the team looks to close the gap against stronger opponents.
While expectations for an immediate return to the Louisiana High School Athletic Association playoffs remain modest, the coaching staff and players are focused on incremental progress. Building chemistry, improving offensive production and tightening defensive play are the primary goals as the season unfolds.
The coming months will serve as a litmus test for the Mustangs' development, and the community will be watching closely as the team attempts to translate early-season improvements into tangible wins.
