Coach Mark Guess welcomes back RBs Shedrick Howard, Markieth Smith, David Foxx and Darius Dorsey. When not running the ball, William Tortorello was solid throwing it last year and should be better this year. Paul Woods in the trenches and John Baldwin lead the defense. With two-thirds of the roster back, the Bears are well armed for a big year.
