Mamou Demons
2024 Record: 1-9
District: 4-3A
Head Coach: Laquin Lamb
The Mamou Demons are entering this season with a fresh perspective and a new leadership structure. Among the new faces guiding the team is first-year Head Coach Laquin Lamb, who previously served on the coaching staff of the Eunice Bobcats.
Lamb played a key role in emphasizing the importance of linemen in Eunice’s success, and he plans to bring that same mentality to the Demons.
"It’s going to fall on me with the O-line, said Lamb. "Teaching those guys the blocking scheme and how to run the wing-T. "Once we get it where we need it to be, our running backs can do the rest."
The Demons finished the previous season with a 1-9 record, struggling to find offensive consistency and averaging 13 points per game. In three of their matchups, Mamou was held scoreless.
Despite those challenges, there is a sense of optimism around the team as they head into the new season. With a few key goals in place and an extra year of experience under their belts, the Demons are ready to make significant improvements on the gridiron.
"I want to make the playoffs for the first time," said Demons Running Back Kaegin Richard. "I never made it in any of the sports I played, so this a goal for me.
"Last year, it was my first year on the football field," said Demons Linebacker Marlinkski Viltz. "Now, with some experience playing, I have a better understanding of my assignments, and I can contribute to winning football games."
