BFL Profile- Norton Black Knights

March 21 , 2003- Each week, leading up to the 2003 BFL season, there will be a look at each BFL franchise, with the player's own perspective on the 2003 Season. Here is the 7th BFL Profile.

All good things must come to an end. This statement can sum up the Black Knights history. Sort of. In John's first two seasons, he was 7-1-2, and plus 79 on points. In fact, John played in BFL Bowl Bowls III and IV in his first two seasons and came away with the BFL Championship once. The Black Knights were the best team in the league. However, last season, John slipped down to 1-1-1 and missed the post season for the first time. "Last season was tough, but it was fun. I think that the only factor was my lack of determination. But that'll all change this season." John is entering 2003 with a new attitude. He wants to win.

So which Black Knights team will we see this year? It looks like John will be back to the same form that he was in in 2000 and 2001. John explained why he will be successful this year. "This season I'll start playing smarter like using the clock better and other strategies." In addition, John said that he has improved physically. "Before this season, I was involved in a number of Frisbee tournaments. This will improve my physical status, so I won't be sluggish in the later half of the games."

Looking ahead to the Black Knights schedule, John plays the determined Bulldogs, the expansion Icebergs, and the always tough Fear. His opponents combined for a total of 2 all time wins. "The game I'm anticipating the most is probably against Mark of the Icebergs. Even though they're a rookie team, he has a very promising future in the BFL. And I want to be one of his first rivals in the league." John gets to play three teams that he has never met before. He starts off in a game against the second fastest team in the league, the Bulldogs.

The Black Knights are ready to get back to the find success again. "I'm definitely going to get back into the playoffs this year. But I can't guarantee BFL Bowl VI." Will the Black Knights return to top of the league status this year? There is a good chance of it.
