The University of Charleston Golden Eagles have been named the favorites in the Mountain East Conference preseason football poll. The poll, conducted by MEC coaches, media representatives, and sports information directors, placed Charleston at the top spot with eight first-place votes.
The Golden Eagles finished last season with an impressive 10-1 record and secured their third consecutive MEC championship. Head coach Pat Kirkland and his team are looking to continue their winning streak and further solidify their dominance in the conference.
Charleston will be led by standout players such as quarterback Mason Olszewski, who was named the MEC Offensive Player of the Year last season. Olszewski will be supported by a strong roster of returning players who are hungry for success.
The Golden Eagles will face tough competition from other MEC teams, including Fairmont State and Notre Dame College, who were ranked second and third in the preseason poll, respectively. However, Charleston’s depth and talent make them a formidable opponent for any team in the conference.
As the season approaches, the Golden Eagles will be focused on maintaining their winning ways and living up to the high expectations set for them by the poll. Fans can expect an exciting season filled with thrilling matchups and intense competition as Charleston looks to defend their MEC championship title.
Stay tuned for updates on the University of Charleston football team as they strive to achieve greatness in the upcoming season.
