2023 Offensive Outlook: Our team is the strongest on the offensive side of the ball as we return the left side of our line featuring Palepale while also returning our QB, Jackson Landis, and top receiving target, Micah Gates.
2023 Defensive Outlook: Defensively, we must come together as we need to replace nine players. Only Shaffer and Palepale return from a year ago.
