Coach’s Comments:

“We have seven starters returning on the defensive side of the ball and I feel they can be a special unit. We also have two senior quarterbacks who are doing a great job of leading the team. We will be successful if we come together and work through the inexperience in key areas.” – Head Coach Len Zdanowicz
