Outlook: Coming off a winless season with three losses due to forfeit, new coach Steve Riojas takes over a program without great numbers. Thirteen starters are back, however. Omar Lozano played Tight End last season and may get the nod under center this year. Tyrone Adams is back at RB, while Ben Lugo is the blocking back. A win or two is possible, but the program has a long way to go. Patience is needed.
