Captain Kangaroo Posted August 19, 2005 Report Share Posted August 19, 2005 Lake Catholic quarterback Rick Stanzi will garner a lot of attention this fall, but the real strength of the Cougars could be an athletic offensive line that averages about 245 pounds. Senior Tim Coan (6-5, 240) and junior Dan Barry (6-2, 280) are back at tackle, and senior guard Brian Stevenson (6-0, 280) also returns. Sophomore center Dave Plungas (6-2, 225) and junior guard Nick Cipkus (6-2, 220) have earned starting jobs. Plungas was the long-snapper as a freshman and Cipkus started on defense last year. The extra protection will be needed while the Cougars try to develop some wide receivers from an inexperienced group, and find a featured running back or back rotation. Fullback Joe Tymoszczuk is recovering from a torn knee ligament suffered during wrestling season. Speaking of Stanzi, the 6-5 senior received his third scholarship offer this week, from Miami of Ohio. Akron and Bowling Green made earlier offers. Boston College has expressed interest, as have Iowa, Indiana and Ohio State Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
