Head Coach J.C. Lewis Q&A

Q. What are the key things we should know about your offense?

A. This year we will be running a spread, up-tempo offense. We look to package a number of different players at each skill positions based on our game plan each week.

Currently, we have position battles taking place at virtually every position on offense, including quarterback.

However, we will look to rely on a senior-heavy offensive line that includes Nick DeLuca, Ruhbeing Quiles and Zach Leonard.

Veteran wideouts Jakob Kramer, Tyler Buckley, and Nick Tannura will also likely play a large role for us this fall.

Q. What are the key things we should know about your defense?

A. This year we will run an aggressive 4-4 defense. We have a group of men that like to be physical and are very excited to put on the pads this fall.

Similar to our offense, we have position battles occurring across the board.

I wouldn’t be surprised to see Ray Wenger take the reigns as our strong side middle linebacker.

Rulbeing Quiles returns on the defensive line and Nick Tannuar returns at corner back.

Q. What are the key things we should know about your special teams? Who are your kick and punt returners? Who are your kicker and punter?

A. Special teams will be very important to our success this fall. We haven’t settled on our kick or punt returners but we do have both Adam Hedgeland and Zach Orner back again this year. They have some experience kicking at the varsity level.

They won’t be able to be complacent. They will be challenged by a few other very talented young men as we move into camp.
