Outlook: Coach Terry Wolf's Eagles have nine starters back and the help of a JV squad that went 8-2 last year. Newcomer Colton Englishbee seems likely to start at QB, while Brayden Little is back at RB. Tyler Jolly will be the blocking back and Seth Baumer should be Englishbee's top target in the passing game. Newcomer Tyler Owen will join Baumer at WR. The Eagles have a quick team, and that will have to make up for lack of size. Wolf's goal is to make the playoffs. If the JV team helps out with the missing pieces of the puzzle, and QB play is solid, the playoffs are a reasonable goal.
