Season Outlook

The passing game should be strong with all but one starter returning, plus our QB returns. We will be more athletic up front than in previous years. Big front 4 on defense. RBs are strong and can run. Good speed at RB and WR positions. QB will be more of a threat to run the ball. Young players are working very hard and are very competitive. Return 8 on Offense and 7 on Defense. We were hit hard by the injury bug early last season. Not a whole lot of depth on both sides of the ball, especially with the line. Some of our younger players will have to step up and play early in the season. Too many 2-way players and we will have to find younger players to give them a break. Young at some spots on both sides of the ball. Must replace an All-State LB. As always, must stay healthy.
