There's no better substitute for experience.

That's exactly what Brockport has as Nate Parker leads a crew of 10 returners on offense and eight on defense. Parker does it all for coach Scott Nugent's Blue Devils. He made All-Greater Rochester Second Team as a linebacker, but was the focal point of the offense at running back as a rusher and receiver. Parker also kicked PATs.

Quarterback Landon Scott and receivers Tyler Judd and Azay Odey are looking to make more plays on the outside. Seniors Austin Paul and Braydon Hassall are some of the Blue Devils' many returning linemen.
