2023 Offensive Outlook: We have to replace the majority of the offensive line as well as two outstanding running backs. The quarterback is entering his third season as the starter after entering in 2021 midway due to an injury. Our entire backfield will include seniors.
2023 Defensive Outlook: We have eight full-time starters returning with others that saw significant action. Have a pair of inside linebackers that have both been all-state selections in the past. The defensive line should be able to get a lot of pressure on the rush.
