Coach James Webster's three keys for taking it up a notch

1. AVOID INJURIES

''We lost so many key players throughout the season that by the end of the year we were forced to play guys out of position and to rely on a lot of young guys. Hopefully, we'll stay healthy this season and benefit from some of the young players who were pushed into action last year.''

2. MANAGE THE GAME

''Make sure (QB) Antonio Heffner knows he does not have to win football games on his own. It is more important for him to manage the game. There are enough good players around him on offense to help out.''

3. REBUILD THE INTERIOR DEFENSIVE LINE

''That is the No. 1 place where we lost players. On the upside it will be an opportunity for some backups to step up. Getting Lamar Divens back (after being ruled ineligible last season) obviously will be a big help up front.''
