2017 Accomplishments

The 2017 season was one to remember for the Lions. The team looked to Bounce Back from a disappointing 2016 campaign, in which they went 13-22 overall and missed the playoffs. The team got off to a great start, winning their first four games. They then went on a nine-game Winning Streak highlighted by a 14-1 drubbing of Rowan. The Lions finished the regular season 22-16, clinching a playoff berth for the first time since 2012.
