2024 Offensive Outlook: We return a great leader in Evan Woodward under center . He leads by example and is cool under pressure . He is a three year starter at QB and is complimented by good athletes all around him . We return most of our backfield and receiving core. As always our success will depend on how dominant we can become up front. We lost two great leaders on the OL and the first order of business will finding the right fit up front.
2024 Defensive Outlook: We return 7-8 starters on the defense . We have a good core of experienced players returning .Building depth so we can get players off the field will be key. We are a small school and with few players , depth is always an issue .
2024 Special Teams Outlook: We need to replace/find both a kicker and punter. We lost an all state level kicker. Replacing a kid like that is not likely and will be a work in progress.
