2020 Outlook: Our 2020 team returns a ton of experience from the District 1 runner up team of last season. Our Offense returns 4 out of 5 starting lineman, both rb’s, 2 out of 3 WR’s and the starting Quarterback. On Defense we return all 4 lineman, 3 linebackers and 3 of 4 defensive backs. Depth will be our biggest plus this year as our program continues to grow.
