From Coach Odom on Facebook:

Today was a magnificent day to be a Crusader!  God is so very good.  There is a chemistry brewing in the team like I have never seen before! 

Is he running spring practices by himself?

More coaches from both St. Henry and Coach Odom.

Just listened to a podcast interview with Coach Odom. A few highlights:

St. Henry will be fielding middle school teams comprised of students from grades 6-8 next year. They currently have 82 players signed up across the three grade levels. Per Couch Odom, "Our eighth grade is loaded."

St. Henry was invited to compete on the middle school level in the GCYL over in Cincinnati, but since they weren't yet sure what their roster numbers would look like on the middle school level they declined the invitation and will be competing only in NKY. Intent is to have an all-8th grade team, an all-7th grade team, and then a "JV" middle school team that will be made up of 6th and 7th graders.

About 24 incoming freshman are currently practicing with the program. 5+ incoming freshman are over 6'2".

There are currently 2 freshman games scheduled for the 2024 season, and they are hoping to get at least 4 more freshman games scheduled. They are looking at getting Cincinnati teams (mentioned McNicholas, Purcell, and Roger Bacon) to play freshman-only games since they aren't able to work into the existing NKY freshman league at current.

There are currently 8 assistant coaches on staff for the freshman/JV teams. Marty & Michael Malone, Dave Campbell, and Ron Davis are the four names he mentioned as assistants. Terry Durstock was mentioned previously in this thread as an assistant but was not mentioned by name in the podcast. I heard some rumors recently that Durstock has decided to stay at Scott HS, but I have no idea whether or not that's true.

The coaching staff doesn't currently have any set offensive format they are planning to run, and will instead be designing their offense to suit the players they have on their roster.

St. Henry currently has 10 JV games scheduled for 2024. McNicholas (OH) was the only one mentioned by name.

I do know one of those freshmen games will be against Dixie at SH to start the season.
