Outlook: The Mustangs return seven offensive starters and three on defense led by a big Senior class including QB David Fitt and WRs Matt McDougald and Matt Irwin. Senior RB Phillip Markle will see carries, as will Junior Michael Schrang. Coach Dougald McDougald is concerned about losing a significant number of players to Kingwood Park, a new school in the area. The Mustangs lack speed but are experienced and have key players back at skill positions. Coach McDougald thinks the team will be much improved.
