The TMP-Marian football program began year number two under head coach Grant Stephenson Monday with the first practice of the year.
Approximately 30 players joined Stephenson for the first practice of the season, including three new seniors who joined the team for their final year of high school.
The Monarchs finished 5-5 last season losing to Norton (18-6) in the second round of the 2A playoffs.
TMP travels to Larned on Aug. 30 for a jamboree and then opens the season the following week on the road at Russell.
