HAMPTON, Virginia -- Coming off of a 3-9 season, Hampton Pirates coach Connell Maynor is back on the field for his second season as he continues to rebuild his team.
“We got a full recruiting class in, more bodies, more depth,” Maynor said. “Hopefully we can stop teams for 4 quarters in stead of 2 or 3 like we did last year.”
The defense is a big emphasis. Coach Maynor made it an off season priority and he’s expecting improvement.
“We weren’t very good on defense, that’s no secret, hopefully we addressed that, we feel good right now, but every coach in America feels good, so we’ve got to wait until September 5th.”
That’s when the Pirates open the season against Eastern Kentucky, and under center, former University of Virginia quarterback David Watford who also went to Hampton high school.
