2022 Offensive Outlook: “We will be led by two tear starter and FBS/FCS recruit RB Mitch Ragni (career: 261 carries for 1,745 yards- 18Tds), WR Tyler Wileczek (32 catches- 405 yards- 5Tds) and FBS recruit OT Stanley Porter (converted TE). One of our strengths will be our ability to rotate a number of players out of the game keeping guys fresh. We will look to control the tempo of the game and play mistake-free football.”

2022 Defensive Outlook: “We return a number of players, who gained valuable experience last season. Mitch Ragni (57 total tackles) returns in the middle to lead the defense and is surrounded by a strong LB unit. Becker Altikriti (35 total tackles) returns at FS, where he will quarterback a unit that returns 3 of 4 starters from ’21. We will look to rotate 7-8 guys on the DL, led by Jr. Mason Grear. Stopping the run and getting off the field on third down are two of our focal points this year.”

2022 Special Teams Outlook:
Snapper Duties: Graham Neill
Kicking: Niklas Nowak and Max Condit
Punting: Max Condit
Returners: Tyler Wileczek, Carlos Jara, Landon Goodwin

Graham Neill is the only returning specialist from last year. We will look to be sound in all phases to help win games.
