What does your offense need to improve on from last year?

Replacing our school´s most decorated passer in Trevor Seitz (Marywood – Basketball) along with dynamic play maker, Kaleb Corwell (Robert Morris – Football), will be important as we look to develop explosive plays.Relying on several Seniors, we should be able to lean heavily upon our OL to carry the team. Though dealing with adversity this off-season, it is critical that we develop continuity upon the OL and work as a cohesive unit.

A key to being successful is looking to improve each day. Find something every day, every practice, every rep that we can improve upon. #BRICKbyBRICK

What does your defense need to improve on from last year
On defense, we will look to improve in several areas, particularly our Run Defense and Pass Pressure. We will solidify our fundamentals and continue to demand relentless team pursuit. Communicating upon defense will be critical as we look to pressure the opposing offense into mistakes.Again, finding something every day, every practice, every rep that we can improve upon is a key to success. #BRICKbyBRICK
