Thoughts on 2024: In 2024 we took our lumps. We will be changing to spread offense in 2025 and looking to develop a passing game to compliment our run game. We have several key seniors who will factor on both sides of the ball.

2025 Offensive Outlook: We lost some key guys during the offseason. Colin Foster due to a leg injury which required surgery and Chase Lumio is moving across state. WE will lean on Jake Peterson and the run game as our identity for our offense. Up front we return 5 guys who either started all year or several games last year. They have been the really working hard in the weight room all off-season. Jason Huggins, Slevin Sun, Will, Vasquez, Quinn Phillips and Viktor Starnawski. AJ Todd, a sophomore, joins us from the baseball team and will look to fill a hole behind center at Quarterback. So far AJ has shown incredible grit and gamesmanship this off-season. He has made some great throws during our 7v7s. In the passing game, we have a bunch of guys who will contribute to give us a compliment to the run. Noah Kolen, Kenny Johnson, Finn Johnson , Cole Catalano, Nick Ferlazzo, Zach Piscopo ,Parker Taylor and Chase Martin have really shown the ability to run great routes and give AJ target.
2025 Defensive Outlook: It is going to be very difficult to replace Colin Foster, our leading tackler the last 2 years. Several guys return defensively and we will need them to step up. Up front will led by Jake Peterson, Jason Huggin, Slevin Sun and Will Vasquez. They have looked explosive all off-season hoping it translate to the field. At linebacker we will have several guys who return from last year led by Cole Catalano. Cole has been a leader all off-season and we will look for him to make immediate impact defensively. Noah Kolen, Finn Johnson, Kenn Johnson, Parker Taylor, Nick Ferlazzo, Zach Piscopo, Reese Keating will all play significant roles defensively.
2025 Special Teams Outlook: Our special teams need to be just as strong as our offense and defense.
