What does your offense need to improve on from last year? |
Jaden Leiby returns at the quarterback position to direct a spread read run/pass offense. With the team’s experience and familiarity offensively, we can expand on what we have done a year ago. Four starters up front will be replaced, but a number of offensive linemen gained valuable experience. Those offensive linemen will be one-way performers with added depth this year. |
What does your defense need to improve on from last year |
A solid nucleus returns on the defensive side of the ball. Tyler Elsdon, Jake Green, Jason Lipshaw, Jaden Leiby, Zack Chowansky return as 4-year starters defensively. Jessie White will be starting his 3rd consecutive year at defensive end. Building a rotation is key keeping guys fresh. |
What are your overall thoughts on this years team? |
Mitchell Lavelle continues to develop as our kicker. His leg strength has improved which helps with his consistency on PAT’s and Field Goals. |
