Senior wide reciever Corey Willis is tackled on April 22 in Kelly/Shorts Stadium.
With returning veterans on the defensive line, at linebacker and in the secondary, the Central Michigan football team has the opportunity to have one of the top defenses in the Mid-American Conference next season.
At the annual Spring Game, the defense caused three interceptions and forced two fumbles. Joe Ostman, Josh Cox, Amari Coleman, Michael Steinhauer and Donny Krye are just a few names of players that are returning for their senior year with the CMU football team.
Along with the seniors, junior linebacker Malik Fountain, junior defensive lineman Nate Brisson-Fast, sophomore defensive lineman Mike Danna, sophomore defensive back Sean Bunting, and plenty others are returning on the defensive side of the ball for the Chippewas.
