Key Stats: We return 5 of 6 of our offensive linemen including our TE and our QB who threw for over 1,000 yards and has led us to back to back district championship games.
2017 Offensive Outlook: While we return 5 of our 6 Offensive lineman including our TE, the key will be the physicality of our backfield.
2017 Defensive Outlook: We return 7 starters including all four of our defensive linemen. The key will be filling in the voids left by graduation at the linebacker and free safety positions.
2017 Special Teams Outlook: We return our kicker in Nathan Rolka, need to secure a punter. Incoming freshman Ray Melnikoff can add depth.
