Season Outlook: The Vikings made the playoffs for the first time since 2002 in 2015, but they lost 3 of their last four, including the first round playoff loss to Hudsonville Unity Christian. 

However, Lakewood has 15 starters returning with talent all over the place. And head coach Nick Boucher says that, unlike last year, this team is not satisfied with just making the playoffs, they want to make a deep run.

The Vikes play a very good schedule in the non-conference, those games should really prepare them for what is expected to be another playoff appearance.
