Melbourne Central Catholic won a playoff game for the second time in three years in 2025, reaching the regional semifinals to cap a 3-8 season.
The Hustlers begin a new era under head coach Ryan Schneider, who will look to take the team to heights he reached at Cocoa.
"(Practice) has been great. The kids are working hard. The coaching staff has done a great job putting together a plan to get us ready for our first game," Schneider said. "We've been improving every day, but that comes with the hard work that these are kids doing. It's a great group of young men who are focused and really moving in the right direction."
Schneider said the transition has been smooth this offseason, learning the players, and the players learning his system. A strong foundation of returning players is what enticed Schneider to take over at MCC.
"It makes all the difference. I would haven't come here if it wasn't a well put together program," Schneider said. "With coach (Willie) Tillman saying he would be the athletic director, that was another main reason why I came here. A chance to work with him and learn from him has been great. He does a great job. I think we really have great things on the horizon for us."
