Scouting the Cougars (0-0, 0-0 CSFL)
Caldwell's inaugural season on the gridiron begins this Saturday against the defending league champions. The Cougars are led by head coach Daryle Weiss, who begins his first season on the sidelines at Caldwell after spending 10 years as an assistant coach at the Division III level. Joining Weiss on the sidelines this fall is an experienced group of coaches, led by renowned former James Caldwell High School coach Ken Trimmer. Caldwell features more than 40 freshmen for its first season in the CSFL. The Cougars will compete in the South Division of the CSFL.
 
Scouting the Quakers (0-0, 0-0 CSFL)
The Quakers posted a 7-0 record last season and claimed the CSFL title in 2016. Penn is led by head coach Bill Wagner, who enters his 48th season on the sidelines for the Quakers. The defense will be led by senior linebacker Quinn Karam and All-CSFL safety Tom Console, who finished the 2016 campaign third in the league in tackles. The offense features a pair of First Team All-CSFL honorees in wide receivers Marcus Jones and Aiden Kelly. The Quakers were second in the league at 378 yards per game on offense and led the league through the air, passing for 252.1 yards per game.
