Mt. whitney FootballPioneer Defensive Philosophy1. Multiple Fronts2. Aggressive3. Let our best players run downhill and make plays4. Know, Show, and Go

The Relentless Pursuit of Excellence In order to incorporate the "swarming defense" and "relentless pursuit" philosophy in our defensive team, it must be a consistent point of emphasis in all areas of our coaching. This type of play must be emphasized in all drills, by all our coaches and throughout the entire football program. Pursuit to the football must be discussed and stressed in individual and team meetings. The concept of "running to the ball" will not be accepted by players if it is only given lip service.
