2023 Offensive Outlook: The offensive outlook for us will be one of consistency and doing what we do well to the strength of the players. Our coaching staff and their position groups are aligned and ready for the season working on finishing the job in 2022. We are young in terms of age, but having players who have grown up in the program from junior varsity is exciting to watch as a head coach.

2023 Defensive Outlook: The defensive outlook for us will be utilizing our depth to stay fresh and healthy throughout the season. The team’s mindset of finishing the job from 2022 has been the player’s anthem since the final whistle of last season. The work and growth of the team in the off-season have been a big part of our excitement. There is still much work to be done, but the attitude of this defense is intense.

2023 Special Teams Outlook: Having one of the best kickers in the league and possibly in 5A is exciting for us as a staff. Our special team’s play from 2022 was an integral part of our success and will be again this year. Maximizing great special teams’ play will allow our defense and offense to perform at a high level. Similar to the defense and offense, there is still work to be done, but we are in a great space coming into the season.
