Key Stats: Ben Carlin (’18 Co-Defensive MVP / 102 total tackles + 5 PD) , Andy Matisz (102 total tackles [3 for loss]), Christian Greggo (110 carries for 781 yds. & 11 rushing TDs + 12 receptions for 158 yds. & 2 receiving TDs), Andrew Darno (24 receptions for 270 yds. & 5 receiving TDs), Jake Hull (76 total tackles (3 for loss) + 5 hurries), Derek Berlitz (68 total tackles + 1 INT & 2 PD)
2019 Outlook: We will continue to push to the top of the league, district and state. Extremely close-knit team, will have between 70-80 players on team…
Offense: We return experienced starting offensive line. Skill players on Offense are young but very talented – need to replace key losses to graduation…
Defense: Strong nucleus returns, more depth all-around on Defense heading into 2019. Role players will be key.
Special Teams: Graduation took the kicker and punter off to college. Nick Garrido, who is the younger brother of our former kicker, Alex Garrido, will handle the majority of kicking duties.
