Outlook:  “The Hatters come into the 2012 Season with six returning starters on defense and five returning players on the offensive side of the ball. Look for senior running back Travis Young to get a lot of carries. At 6’0 230 lbs, Young will be a force in the run game.  The Hatters will also count on junior Luke Spahits and senior Chris Ejimonyeogwo to get a lot of carries throughout the season. The Hatters O-line will be anchored by senior John Molnar, senior Gary Pagliaro and junior Shane Delp.
“The defense will be anchored by senior Steve Palo. Palo returns for his third season as a linebacker for the Hatters.”
