Season outlook: The Rangeley boys played their first playoff game in six years a year ago, and will be looking to build off of that momentum. The goal is to build a stronger program, and to that end, the Lakers just completed summer soccer for the first time in a while. Last year was a rebuilding year for the Lakers. They have built a strong foundation and will be working to improve more throughout this season. Another playoff berth is in the offing for the Lakers if they keep their heads down and keep moving along.
