2021 Offensive Outlook: Continue to build momentum off of a successful 2020 season. Although we lost 17 seniors, we have a good mix of some young talent along with guys who’ve seen significant and meaningful varsity time. We expect to complete each week in a new and difficult conference.
Running the football. If we can establish the run when we’re on offense we will be able to play the style of offense we want to play.
2021 Defensive Outlook: Stopping the run. If we can stop the run, we will be able to play the style of defense we want to play.
2021 Special Teams Outlook: We have a solid Kicker returning in Micheal Wallbillich. We also are excited to have both Nick Petrillo and Kyle McGrath back in the return game.
