Holy Innocents’ went 5-5 in the regular season last year after replacing 19 starters, and is going to be much more experienced as head coach Nick Perrotta enters his second year as head coach and sixth season at the school. The other significant difference this season will be another year of experience in a modernized offensive system. “I think when you transition from under center triple option to shotgun spread or pro-style offense, there are going to be growing pains,” Perrotta said. “Our offensive line was learning how to measure block for the first time and climb to that second level and not scoop and veer and those sorts of things.”
Robert Matthews is a new offensive coordinator going into this season. He coached at Blessed Trinity the past two years and prior to that, had a long run as a college coach at Oklahoma State, Southern Mississippi, and was an offensive coordinator at South Alabama. “What we really did a great job at this offseason is how to match our scheme with our personnel and this coming season will be the most offensive skill players we’ve ever had,” he said.
