Key Stats: With the loss of Tanner Schwilk at QB and Jose Barbon at WR there are really no stats for us offensively. On defense we really need to improve!
2018 Offensive Outlook: In 2017 we were very successful throwing the football with the duo of Tanner Schwilk and Jose Barbon. We have to establish a running game in 2018 and 1st year starter Bradley Stoltzfus is a key in both the passing and running game this season. We have an excellent core of returning WR’s and will need help from a few sophomores to get the offense on track this season. The experienced offensive will be critical to our success both running and passing the football.
2018 Special Teams Outlook: Positive gains! Special teams has to put the offense and defense in favorable situation throughout the year. Having an experience punter and kicker returning will help but we can’t turn the ball over on special teams and need to make a few big plays.
