Quote:Written Option: The offseason is a time of change. Tell us what has changed for your player or for your team since you last took the field. Are you loaded up with new weapons or a large cast of rookies? Has your player improved, or are they currently in the throes of regression? How do you think this season will play out differently than ones before?
After ending his rookie season with the Honolulu Hahalua with 101 tackles, 1 for a loss, 3 interceptions with 1 pick-6 and 11 pass deflections, Davriel would head into the offseason looking to improve on what was the basis of an amazing career. Two big parts Lavigne was looking to improve on his game were his hands and his on field defense play reading. 3 interceptions and 11 pass deflections were nothing to scoff at. However 2 of those interceptions came in their week 5 game against the New York Silverbacks, meaning Lavigne only snagged 1 interception in the other 15 games. A big outlier was the 4 pass deflections he gained in the week 3 game agsinst the Baltimore Hawks.
Looking to become more consistant in the air defending game, Lavigne spent many hours per day studying game tape, working up his understanding of play calling and what the QBs of the ISFL like to do. Besides game tape he spent a ton of time on the field working with his QBs and WRs working on ball handling and understanding ball physics to up his interception and pass deflection game.
For the Hahalua themselves this offseason came with a few changes to the squad as they added S26 draftee Richard Littlewood to their offensive line and brought in hot young free agent Korbin Brown. Bringing in a future replacement for the aging Podolak. The team also saw S22 defensive end Ismael Sanchez finally be a part of the team. Rumour has it Ismael was quite high up on Honolulu initial draft draftboard, but lost out on him however.
The Hahalua who were looking to improve on their 8-8 record last season, came out of the starting gate this season with a disapointing 0-2 record. However with 14 more games to play anything is posible for this team.
