Obviously Tuten and APR were great

Drones, along with Felton and Jennings had poor years for various reasons. While the somewhat unexpected return of the duo of Strong and Delane weren't terrible, underwhelming the majority of the season. That is the bulk of the returnees people were most excited about. We needed just about all of them to have great years.

2023 season finished so strong. that was the indicator along with returnees**

Many predicted 8-4 with a 10-2 season when every bounce went the right way.
