Next Chapter At South Fort Myers

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>When <strong>Willis May</strong> stepped down at the end of the season after years as head coach, South Fort Myers didn't have to look far to fill the position.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Matt Holderfield</strong> has been around this program long enough to know what needs to be done to get the Wolfpack back in the mix.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 2023 season was indeed a tale of two different teams. The first half of the year watched this program post a 4-1 record and things looked promising as the state playoffs were a destination.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>But the last five games saw this team post a 2-3 record with district losses to Fort Myers Dunbar and Fort Myers taking them out of contention.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>As the 2024 season is closing in, this is a program that has enjoyed a productive off-season and has made the most of the summer camps and 7-on-7 events as they anticipate a competitive run in District 12-4A.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>If this program is going to turn the corner, the senior class (2025) will need to step up with experience and leadership.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Here is a look at some of those prospects to keep an eye on:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Danilo Ibarra, OL/DL, 5-11, 257 – 3.4 GPA.</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>TAPE: </strong><a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/16166078/636afb1ce97b9508ccdea140" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.hudl.com/video/3/16166078/636afb1ce97b9508ccdea140</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>T.D.
