2016 Offensive outlook: (Please let us know the keys about your team on offense. What are your keys to having a successful year?)

We Graduate a lot of seniors and will need to focus on building an Offensive Line.

2016 Defensive Outlook: (Please let us know the keys about your team on defense. What are your keys to having a successful year?)

Younger players will need to earn position and step up. We had a Great off-season which will help us to field a good group of players.

2016 Special Teams Outlook: (Please let us know the keys about your team on special teams. What are your keys to having a successful year?)

Focus on not giving up big plays on the special teams
