2020 Outlook:
Offense: We lost 3 starters. Keegan Rude was a big playmaker. Young players are bigger and stronger with a hunger to be successful. Sr. leadership up front need to lead Mason Lister & Shayne Reid with the other athletes to make us more productive on offense!
Lots of athletes on offense. Offense lineman need to work together and develop depth.
Defense: Lots of experience returning and we need to find the best 11 to work as a unit!
Special Team: Need to find a kicker & punter
