(2014: 6-4)

Whispers around the league suggest that head coach Aristide Marossi may have a sleeper of a team. At quarterback Jose Mohler (North Dakota State) is a bonus. He played for the Cologne Falcons in the German Football League and was instrumental in helping the Falcons recover from a 2-10 last place finish in 2013 to 7-5 and the playoffs in 2014.

Also added to the Lions is defensive back Garrett Griffeth (3 time NAIA All-Conference and Maple League All-Star in Finland in 2014).

The Lions may sneak up on some teams in 2015.
