2022 Offensive Outlook: “We are excited about what we return on Offense in 2022. We will have a new quarterback, Danny Koehler, who has had a very good off-season and is ready to take the reigns at PV. There is good competition at our running back and receiver positions. Our offensive line is bonding well and putting in the strength and conditioning hours. We will look to be balanced run/pass on offense and try to execute as cleanly as possible. Our focus will be on protecting the ball and being efficient.”

2022 Defensive Outlook: “We are excited about what we return on Defense in 2022. We always strive to be a sound tackling football team. We will look to create turnovers and rally to the ball with all 11 defenders. Our focus will be on gap responsibility and formation recognition.”

2022 Special Teams Outlook: “Special Team is an enormous area of focus for PV. We will strive to be disciplined in all aspects and utilize the skill sets of the players on our team. Ryan Klimek returns as our kicker and he had a very nice Junior season for us in this capacity.”
