Cody Hess, a familiar face for Mater Dei fans, is stepping up as head coach after Mike Goebel’s legendary run. Hess isn’t just any coach—he played for the Wildcats and helped take them to state in 2011, so he knows the heart of this team. With senior leaders like quarterback Tate Mallory and receiver Nolan Schickel returning, plus powerhouse rusher Caden Thacker, expectations are high. The Wildcats open their season against Central this Friday at 6:30. How do you think Hess’s deep roots in the program will shape the team’s future? #Sports #Football #MaterDei
