CHEVERUS
Coach: John Wolfgram, fourth year
Last year: 5-3, lost in Western Maine quarterfinals
Returning starters: 12
Impact players: Peter Gwilym, junior, QB/DB; Matt Place, senior, HB/DE; Matt Ball, senior, FB/LB; James Rutter, senior, WR/DB; Tom Marcisso, senior, OG/DE; Evan Jendrasko, junior, FB/DT; Jon White, senior, TE/DE; Mickey O`Brion, senior, OG/DE; Pat Chadbourne, senior, WR/DB; Joe Falconieri, senior, WR/DB; Liam Hobbins, junior, HB/DB
Outlook: The Stags are looking to build on last year`s winning season and make a return trip to the postseason. Gwilym returns at QB. He gives Cheverus a passing threat, while Place, Ball and Hobbins should provide a strong ground game. The key to the season will be how the line develops and if it stays healthy, because depth could be an issue.
