Danville Ironmen
The Ironmen enter winless, averaging just 198.5 yards per game while allowing 72 points in two contests. Quarterback and all-around playmaker Carter Raup has been the centerpiece, leading the team in rushing, passing, receiving, and even tackles. His versatility is undeniable, but Danville needs more balance to compete. Defensively, Lliam Hagerman and Raup provide toughness, but the unit has struggled against stronger lines.
