Flower Mound Jaguars

Head Coach: Brian Basil (8th season)

Last Season: 3-7; 3-4 in district

Flower Mound Key Players and Storylines

The Jaguars came out the wrong end of a three-way tiebreaker for the final playoff spot a year ago. If they’re to make it back to the playoffs for the second time in three years, several young players will have to step up in 2023.

Flower Mound returns just three starters on offense and four on defense this season.

Offensively, head coach Brian Basil expects receiver Cameron Bouck and quarterback Jake Watson, who were both JV starters last year, to step into big roles this season. Senior receiver Jason Welch (577 receiving yards and five TDs) will serve as a crucial helping hand as they and several other younger players make that transition.

On the other side of the ball, Flower Mound will be looking for some improvement on a unit that allowed over 34 points per game a year ago.

Flower Mound’s most experienced players will be found in its front seven. Look for linebackers Elijah Luneke (113 tackles and two sacks) and Zeke Zwandenburg (91 tackles, four sacks) and defensive end Scott Rumsey (55 tackles, 3.5 sacks) to lead the way as the Jaguars fill the other gaps left by graduating seniors.

Basil said Flower Mound will be younger than last year when it takes the field this far. However, he doesn’t think a playoff spot is out of the question.

It will be an uphill battle as several players will face baptisms by fire, but Basil has no doubt that his players are hungry for success after the commitment they have displayed during the offseason.
