2025 Offensive Outlook: The offense returns many players that played significant time in 2024, with competitions still happening at several positions. The offensive line returns 4 players that played significant time in 2024, including AJ Moyer, Lynn Bellard, Matthew Wright, and Ashton Pugh. Seniors Grant Dziedziak and Christian Hansell both look to have major contributions as well on the OL. The WR group returns key contributors Blake Turner, Jackson Wickersham, Rowan Harmon, and is deep with talented players looking to breakout this season, including Shane Cornelision, Aiden Lennon, Dailyn Palmer, and Owen Layman. Ryan Kerchner returns for his senior season at TE, who has been the starting TE since his freshman season. Brayden Hinkle shined in limited opportunities in 2024, backing up Senior RB Jamal Lewis. Brayden will have an increased role this season and should be a difference maker. Cole Broderick is another senior RB that will give major contributions on both sides of the ball. Junior QBs Trent Yoder and Kaden Pickersgill each return, and both will contribute offensively in 2025.

2025 Defensive Outlook: The defensive line returns starters AJ Moyer, Ryan Kerchner, Victor Vanderzille with several more looking to have major contributions including Sr. Angelo Lopez, and Juniors Barrett Tyson, Dylan Garay, Pat Clark, and Chris Russell. The linebacking core returns Seniors Jacob McDowell, Cole Broderick, and Brandon Bendowski, as well as Junior Jacob Onufer. The Defensive Backs return Blake Turner, Dailyn Palmer, and Jack Strzeminski, and Owen Layman, who all played major roles in 2024. Aiden Lennon, Shane Cornelison, and Logan Stutz all look to make contributions this season.

2025 Special Teams Outlook: Ryan Reavy will be returning as the kicker/punter for his senior season to lead the special teams units again. Ryan has a powerful leg that will be a huge benefit this season. Several returning players have the ability to return kicks and create explosive plays on special teams.
