Final Comments: On offense we're solid at tight end and running back. We have a new starting quarterback this year. We're very experienced in the defensive box. We return three of our top four tacklers from last year's regional final team. We are young in the secondary but extremely athletic. The kicking game could be considered a weakness. Our schedule is much tougher this year. We play Four Division 5 teams. We also have new Week 2 (Utica) and Week 3 (Hopewell-Loudon) games which will prove to be tougher than last year.
