What are your expectations for your team this year?
We lost our leading rusher (Jacob Hoffman), receiver (Keegan Brennan) and our leading tackler (TJ Wagner) to graduation. Filling those holes will be a priority for us. We do return Cody Miller at QB. Cody is a 3 years starter and has thrown for 1000 yards the last 2 seasons. Our numbers are good and we have some talented underclassman who will step up. We are excited to get in a full off-season and to compete.
When your team is on offense, what are the keys to success?
We are a 70-30 run oriented team so we will need to establish the run game again in order to be successful. Stephan Spolski will line up more in the feature back position. He is a very physical runner who is capable of making big plays. Cody Miller is a 3 year starter and an excellent athlete who can make plays running and passing. Our ability to fill the holes left by big play threats Hoffman and Brennan will be the key to our success.
When your team is on defense, what are the keys to success?
We lost 3 starting defensive lineman so filling in those spots will be a priority. We return 4 linebackers in Jack Miller, Stephan Spolski, Fletcher Eades and Brayden Feisel and two defensive backs in Cody Miller and Julius Walborn. Stopping the run, which we struggled to do last year, will be the key to our success on defense.
