Preseason Poll Projection: 4th
Outlook: The River Hawks won six of their final eight games to finish with their best record since 2012. Now Susquehanna wants more and with the return of 17 starters, more might be within its grasp. Crusco is a three-year starter and closing in on numerous school records. Ott and Robertson combined for over 1,000 rushing yards, while Bluj blossomed into one of the CC's top possession receivers. Bair anchors a veteran line that returns intact. The River Hawk defense is young and will be tested early. Micik and Ganard are the lone returning senior starters. Shelton was the 2016 Centennial Rookie of the Year, while Dixon had a strong first season at LB. Susquehanna will make a lot of noise this fall.
