D1 (FBS & FCS) Prospects: SO – Nick Argento; JR – Kendrick Gillespie-Boyd

Key Stats: Must replace over 2,000 yards of offense lost with the graduation of Blake Cahill.

2014 Outlook: The 2014 Red Lion Defense, with 8 starters returning, will need to carry the team early as the Offense will have 1st year starters at QB and all WR positions. SR RB Kenny Halloway, who led the team in rushing last year, figures to get the ball early and often.

The Offensive line, led by SR Sam Lowe and SO Nick Argento, may be the strength of the offensive side of the ball. They will need to produce early on. Jr WR Kendrick Gillespie-Boyd has shown great promise during his Sophomore campaign and will need to be a factor for the Offense to show balance.

The previously-mentioned Defense is Senior laden, with Linebackers Dan Waldrup and Joe Dashler, Cornerbacks Derek Ross and Nate Orji and Linemen Sam Lowe and Greg Thibault. The underclassmen, led by JR Stone Hill and SO Nick Argento will also need to continue to improve for the Red Lion Defense to have a successful year.
