Season Preview

Having just completed its most successful season in over a decade, the Norwich University football team begins defense of its 2009 Eastern Collegiate Football Conference (ECFC) title this fall. The Cadets ended last year by winning their final eight games to finish with an 8-3 overall record and its first conference championship in the long and storied history of the program. With 19 starters returning to the team this year, head coach Shawn McIntyre is optimistic that 2010 could be another special season.

The Cadets return nearly their entire offensive unit from last season’s championship squad, but they will have a couple of huge holes to fill on the defensive side of the ball with the graduation of all-conference standouts Reza Afsarmanesh and Donovan Brown. Afsarmanesh terrorized opposing teams’ offenses last year, piling up team highs in tackles-for-loss (16.5) and quarterback sacks (7.0) en route to being named the ECFC “Defensive Player of the Year.” Brown, who was one of the team’s co-captains and quarterbacked the Cadets’ defense from his strong safety position, topped the club with six interceptions. NU also lost starting cornerbacks E.J. Flannigan and Dan Wilde, but the defense should continue to be strong with a slew of linebackers and defensive linemen returning to the fold.
