2016 Offensive outlook: (Please let us know the keys about your team on offense. What are your keys to having a successful year?)

We have a good amount of starters and key subs back from last year. We are very athletic at the skill positions. Our Offensive line is athletic as well.

2016 Defensive Outlook: (Please let us know the keys about your team on defense. What are your keys to having a successful year?)

We have a lot of speed on the defensive side of the ball. We have the chance to be very good on the defensive side as long as we are discipline and play as a unit.

2016 Special Teams Outlook: (Please let us know the keys about your team on special teams. What are your keys to having a successful year?)

We return both of our Kickers from last year. Dan Zanine was an All League selection.
