Blue Devils Announce Winter Season Captains

The winter season is well underway at Huntington High School. Coaches of nine varsity teams have announced their captains and the group includes many familiar faces.

“Being a team captain means accepting responsibility for your team,” states the US Sports Camps website. “You become the team leader and must set the standard of what it means to be a great teammate. Team leaders are essential to executing your vision for your team and setting the tone for your teammates.”

The organization says the five qualities that make for a great team captain are: 1. Lead by example; 2. Be positive; 3. Communication; 4. Teach leadership; 5. Caring
