Central Lyon/George-Little Rock is preparing for the upcoming season after finishing last year with a 2-6 record, marking the program’s first losing season since 2017. Despite the disappointing overall record, the Lions showed promise by winning their final two games, suggesting momentum heading into 2026.
The team has invested in developing younger players over the past couple of seasons, with quarterback Jayden Daale and running back Michelet Sedam among those expected to take prominent roles this year. The Lions struggled in close contests last season, winning only one of five one-score games, a statistic that has become a primary focus for improvement.
Coach Curtis Eben emphasized that the difference between wins and losses often comes down to executing key plays in critical moments. The team believes it was not significantly far from success last season and plans to address fundamentals to convert close contests into victories. Daale echoed this sentiment, expressing confidence that the Lions will capitalize on crucial opportunities this year rather than falling short as they did previously.
