Coach Bozzi's Season Outlook: We graduated 15 starters (9 defense/6 offense) including Alex Corrazinni, who plays at Wesleyan, Ethan Donecker and Andrew Paxton who's playing at Plymouth State. We graduated our top three rushers and our top four receivers so we're totally rebuilding that part of the game.
This year's team, we're certainly younger. I think the camaraderie level is better. I think they're a more motivated bunch. They're a fun group to work with.
