There seems to be a large number of CUW transfers on Marian's roster. Did Marian pick up one of CUW's coaches?
Marian's current head coach, Zach Gaynor, was an assistant with CUW from 2012 to 2017. The CUW coach, Jasen Wise, is known to love his underclassmen as he thinks they are "hungrier". By looking at the majority of his upperclassmen over the years you will notice a decline in games played and point production from freshmen year to senior year. This was the case when he was at Marian as well. Most likely a reason 2 of the 3 transfers are heading into their senior year.

This strategy makes way more sense than developing talent so that players peak as upperclassmen.
