Key Stats: Both Mills and Conrad had over 100 tackles last year. We lost 80 % of our offensive production to graduation.
2015 Outlook: After losing so much offensively last year this summer will be the key to our season. Getting new players reps in practice will be crucial.
Defensively we lost some key players but return six players who have a lot of experience at their positions.
Special Teams we lost everyone except our long snapper. We do have a first year senior or played soccer through high school and has a strong leg.
The keys to us having a successful year is our off season work and be able to stay competitive into the fourth quarter of every game.
If we get some early wins I think it will really help out confidence for when we get into our league play.
