Hunter Wolverines
Hunter has struggled to find consistency offensively, averaging just 175 total yards per game. QB Isi Moungaafi (77.5 total ypg) and WR Evan Fallis (75 receiving ypg) are the primary playmakers, but the Wolverines need to improve both protection and finishing drives. RB Ridhwan Aweis (57.5 rushing ypg) provides a solid option out of the backfield.
Defensively, Hunter has shown flashes but lacks depth. DL Aysan Sanaphanh (1 sack) and LB Paula Makaafi headline a group that has given up 35 points per game.
