Season Outlook:
It's a rebuild year for 3rd year head coach Kendall Crockett as only three starters are back from last year's playoff group.
The Orioles have the smallest squad in the area with only 17 players on varsity. But that's more than last year, where they played a majority of the season with only 10 guys in uniform.
An 8-1 record probably won't happen with all the new players, but it is not out of the realm of possibility for Morrice to get six wins and another playoff berth.
They play at Webberville and host Portland St. Pats. But week 4 at Deckerville is a revenge game for them. We'll find out about the Orioles then.
