Dotson replaces Mitch Coulson, who ran for 20 touchdowns and threw for 11 during the Wildcats’ 10-1 season in 2020. Dotson, instead, is a traditional passer, completing 61% of attempts and scoring 6 touchdowns as LHHS’ backup last year.

The News previously recognized senior Noelle Whitehead, returning at running back, as a “player to watch.” Whitehead earned 1,557 yards and 20 touchdowns last season. Go Cats!
