2021 Outlook: We return a number of starters, on both sides of the ball, from last year. We are experienced; we are physically strong and we have 40 seniors who provide outstanding leadership.
The Central League should have week after week of exciting games this year. There are many strong teams. If we stay healthy and continue to grow and improve, I am excited to see what this team will be able to accomplish.
Offense: Depth on the o-line is a huge plus for a team that loves to run the football!
Defense: We return eight starters from a very good defense last year
Special Team: Zack Liberatore is one of the top kickers in the area
