Lost 24-20 to Steel High 2nd Round of States
2017 Offensive Outlook: Loss of 3 Sr Lineman will be biggest concern. Due to several injuries over past to seasons several young guys got multiple starts which is vital to the rebuilding process. Adam Stroup will anchor the line at his center position for the 3rd season as well as returning Tackle Dimon. Lower overall numbers so health is again the main concern. Skilled position talent is the offensive strong point. All skills have started since freshman season. Class A east player of year Dylan Rabuck is back to handle the ground attack setting school record of 2300+ yrds. Fullback Nick Savage is clearing the path. Qb Levi Engle has taken the offseason by storm and will make an all-state selection case. WR’s and TE all Sr’s all blessed with exceptional speed and quickness. Jake Wolfgang at 6-5 is a DC headache. Allen Hand’s separation speed and Devon Rabuck’s strength provide elite options in passing game. Team unity and sharing in each others success is vital key to accomplishing team goals.
2017 Defensive Outlook: Very Solid upfront and stout against the run and excellent pass rushers from the edges. Big Zech Hite is as large and physically gifted as any interior player at any classification. Devon Rabuck tallied 19 sacks in 2016. Opposite side DE Nick Savage high energy disruptive presence. All State linebacker Dylan Wolfgang and Dylan Rabuck are back yet again. Wolfgang looks to build on a 178 tackles campaign that is best amongst state leaders. Secondary very strong with 3 returning Db’s in the mix with Wolfgang,Engle and Hand. Picks will be the intention.
2017 Special Teams Outlook: Be efficient crisp and a positive extension of the offense and defense.
