“The D3 king in the East will be a perennial power from Delaware, Wesley, where All-America running back E.J. Lee (1,582 rushing yards, 22 TDs) will be hard to stop behind returning QB Khaaliq Burroughs, who passed for 2,483 yards last season. Defensively, safety Cappadonna Miller is a difference-maker who came up with five interceptions last season.”
