Preseason Poll Projection: 5th

Outlook: The Greyhounds jumped out to a 4-1 start last fall but stumbled home with four losses in their final five games. Fourteen starters are back looking to return to the postseason after a year's absence. The program's all-time pass and rush leaders have graduated, but four starters are back on the OL led by Dignazio. Anderson and Hudson are excellent receiving targets for the new QB. Ewald is a two-year starter at LB and the leader of the defense. Zambelli is the lone returnee in the secondary, while Stout and Rooney are experienced interior linemen. Moravian is one of the question marks in the Conference in 2017.
