2018 Offensive Outlook: Although mostly young and inexperienced, we like our returning skills kids. We lost a lot on the offensive line and do not have a ton of depth, so that is an area of concern. We will need senior leadership from James Begg and Dante Ciocci up front. Ryan Engro (Jr.) and Dean Wright (Fr.) are competing for the QB spot.

2018 Defensive Outlook: We return our two leading tacklers in Nick Delromano and James Albert, as well as 3/4 of our secondary, Stephen Brill, Leo Van Hulst, and Nick Uba. Due to depth issues on the defensive line, we are going to have to move guys around to try to fortify our unit.

2018 Special Teams Outlook: Taylor Smith had an outstanding junior year and is back for us. He has had an excellent off-season for us and will be even better.
