Coach Ronnie Hernandez has QB Braxton Hicks returning along with RB Derrick Gonzalez -- who sprinted for 1,000 yards last year. Sophomore Tight End Javier Perez is a talented player to keep an eye on. There are plenty of newcomers that should fill roles in the trenches. After a 2-8 season last year, El Paso needs pieces to fall in place for major improvement.
