Key Newcomers: N/A

Key Stats: N/A

2018 Offensive Outlook: While we return our entire skill position guys in the backfield, we will be inexperienced up front. We will rely heavily on are returning QB and RB’s to provide leadership for a young and growing offensive line.

2018 Defensive Outlook: Our strength will be at the linebacker position, we return 3 starters and we will expect them to provide leadership for a young secondary with great communication.

2018 Special Teams Outlook: We lose a very good kicker, so we will be spending our spring and summer looking for a viable replacement. We do return our All-League punter in Connor Patania.
