Outlook: Only five starters return for coach David Yeager's YellowJackets who are hoping to maintain a high level of play after finishing 9-4 last season. Trey Brooks is back at QB, as is dangerous Tight End Walter Woolman. The offensive line will be anchored by Andrew Ratliff. Clayton Maples is the leading candidate to start at RB, though Jordan Ashabranner should also see carries. The defense will be led by Logan Davis at LB and Corners Todd Tribble and Taylor Maddox. If the offense comes around, and key newcomers play big roles, Llano will compete week in and week out.
