*17-4 as a starter

Darrion Thomas had 17 total tackles, one sack, and 2.5 TFL.

Tyrell English rushed for 152 yards on 21 carries and one score. He caught 2 passes for 114 yards and one touchdown. On defense, he had 27 total tackles and 1 TFL.

Zion Allen had 8 total tackles and three interceptions. 

Ahren Stauffer averaged 40.6 yards per punt and he was 28-of-28 extra points and 3 of 5 field goals, 47 long.

2021 Outlook:

Offense:  We lost almost all of our receiving and rushing yardage to graduation.  Super-veteran QB Max Mosey will be very key in bringing along all the new skill players around him.  We do return 2 very good offensive linemen (Yeager and Stewart) and a TE (Darrion Thomas) which provides a foundation to build from upfront.

Defense:  We only return three starters on defense.  All four LB’s graduated along with most of the guys who played DL.  We will have a lot of new faces at each position on defense.  They will have to come together very quickly considering the very tough schedule we face starting with Game #1. 

Special Team:  Ahren Stauffer can be a weapon with the ability to significantly impact games as both a kicker and punter.  He’s already proven that he has a strong leg and the ability to handle pressure situations.  All other specialists (long snapper and returners) were lost to graduation.
