2023 Outlook:
Offense: Aaron Crossley, one of the top running backs in PA verbally committed to Lehigh University, returns to lead a strong running game after rushing for over 2,000 yards last season. The offensive line is a group that combines talent, measurables, and experience, while the quarterbacks and receivers have grown significantly, and continue to gain confidence in their playmaking abilities.

Defense: The defense returns several players that gained valuable game experience last season. This group will be physical up front, experienced in the back end, and will run to the ball aggressively.

Special Team: The special teams will continue to be a strength. All of our specialists received post-season recognition last season.
