Coach: Ross Hjelseth, 19th year
2011 record: 5-4, 5th in league.
Offense: Coordinator (set) – Doug Burton (spread). Returning starters – 3. Top players – OL Kevin Breen 5-10, 200, jr.; WR Kyle Goodman 6-1, 170, jr.; RB Lionel Hampton 5-8, 165, jr.; OL Chase Knoblauch 5-8, 215, sr.; RB Ben Madlena 5-10, 165, so.; QB Taylor Roelofs 5-11, 170, jr.
Defense: Coordinator (set) – Morgan Cox (4-3). Returning starters – 3. Top players – DL Kevin Breen 5-10, 200, jr.; DB Hunter Haley 5-6, 140, jr.; LB Chase Knoblauch 5-8, 215, sr.; DL Vlad Rudenko 6-2, 190, jr.; LB Fesili Wynn 5-7, 180, so.
Outlook: The Eagles are really gearing up for 2013. They will have first-year starters at 20 positions this season, which means contending for the league crown might be unrealistic. That does not mean Life Christian can’t earn a playoff spot because this is a group of talented sophomores and juniors – and Knoblauch is a two-way terror as a senior.
