2023 Offensive Outlook: we are an exciting and developing group of offensive talent, the team will find success this season striking a balance in all phases of the game. We will be led by a committed group both on the ground and in the air. We will look to be able to run the ball with players like Brody McLaughlin, Brady Kelly, and Tristian McIlrath and control the clock. We want to create stress on the defense downfield with players like Ollie Tarr, Trevor D’Iorio, and Mick Levendis. We will rely on the experience of our senior center Jack Hyman to anchor our offensive line.

2023 Defensive Outlook: we will be relying on a dedicated defense that will look to set the tone. We have a swarm-to-the-ball mentality on defense. We will rely on the experience of players like Matt D’Amico, Jacob Cassidy, and Ollie Tarr to help set that tone for us. Players like Nolan Holt, Jack Hyman, and Jack Gillespie should be able to create some game-changing plays upfront and help to create turnovers.

2023 Special Teams Outlook: We look to being able to utilize our kicking game and rely on our Senior Kicker Jack Reichart. Jack has worked really hard to become a threat in several areas of the kicking game.
