2025 Schedule
| Season Outlook |
| We return three starting offensive linemen as well as three starting linebackers, so those areas should be the strengths we rely on. We have good hard-working kids that we believe will grow and mature throughout the preseason, and we should have some great position battles that brings out the best in our student-athletes. We have to replace several quality seniors who graduated including a 3-year starting quarterback (Josh Myer), a home-run threat (Brayden Eppinette), an all-state LB (Dane Bollinger), our best 2-way lineman (Thomas Dattoli), and a tremendous kicker/punter (Talen Popolis). Those are big holes to fill, but we are confident that we have athletes who can step into those shoes and take the next step this season. |
