Season outlook: The Lumberjacks are looking to build off a 5-3 record in Harrison’s first season, which saw the team win the Bonnefond Division of the Evergreen Conference. The team lost a big offensive star in Scott, who is now at Bates, as well some other skill-position players and multiple linemen. But the numbers in the program have grown, and Harrison said the team team is filled with athletes. Tuzzo is the team’s leader, and a few juniors and post-grad players will also fill key roles.
