2023 Offensive Outlook: The key to this year’s offense is for our young offensive line to jell and be physical.

2023 Defensive Outlook: The defense returns nine starters and a few players that have a lot of experience in varsity action. They should be the strength of the team.

2023 Special Teams Outlook: We have many good young players that will help in our special teams.
