2024 Offensive Outlook:
1. Haydn Moyer at QB will have to quickly mature and become comfortable being the signal caller at the Varsity level
2. Our young offensive line must mesh together quickly and become a single unit
3. Spreading the ball around to many of our senior skill positions, early and often will keep opposing teams off balance and slow to attack

2024 Defensive Outlook:
1. Communication. Our defense relies heavily on communication as we adjust often
2. Getting to the quarterback. We have to get to the quarterback to cut down on the time our DBacks are in coverage.
