The Offensive Line
Returning your entire offensive line is a prominent start after ranking No. 5 in the NAIA in the total offensive yards per game category. Last season, the Tigers tallied nearly 518 yards per game, led by senior quarterback Dillon Turner. However, it all starts up front for the Tigers.
Anchored by senior center Levi Rozeboom (Inwood, Iowa) the Tigers look to continue their dominant ways on the offensive side of the ball. Zach Duin (Minneapolis, Minn.) and senior Damon Macleary (Cheyenne, Wyo.) return at the guard positions, while Trevor Wietzema (Worthington, Minn.) and Cody Cook (Harrisburg, S.D.) anchor the tackle positions.
The Tigers will need a steady dose of offensive firepower to stay atop the rankings in the competitive Great Plains Athletic Conference and it will all start in the trenches for DWU.
