2023 Season Outlook: I am excited for my first year in the tough Wyoming Valley Conference. My goals are to have the players compete at a high level, strive to give their best all-out effort and have them grow in their skills and abilities both on and off the field. Coming off an 0-10 season, I want the players to develop confidence in themselves and their teammates by working together and pushing one another to be their best.

Offense: Our offense has to have a good balanced approach. We will run and throw the ball from different looks out of our base offense.

Defense: Our defense has to be able to match up with our opponent’s talent. We will utilize multiple fronts and blitzes to put our defense in the best position to make plays and limit our opponent’s scoring opportunities.

Special Team: our special teams must be able to score points, put our opponents in position difficult field positions while providing our team with the best field position possible
