2021 Outlook: Our talent is there to be a competitive ball club at the smaller school level. We need to continue to progress in the details of our offensive/defensive philosophies and growth in leadership.
Offense: First full year under the new system, will help expand our attack, plenty of offensive linemen return with varsity experience and the addition of Coach Smith will expand our schemes of attack. We are relying on the growth of our new QB, Tolan Stahl, who was a standout Receiver for us last year.
Defense: Continue to build off of the strong finish last season. Confidence in their roles has led to Coach Blair’s defense coming to fruition. Return the entire secondary including backups. Progression of the defensive line will determine just how good this defense will be
Special Team: Return our K/P, Joe Stefurak-FGs 3/3. Once Coach Gallagher took over the special teams, Instant positive results, we believe another year with his direction our special team will become a great asset
