Logan Jones will start at QB with a starting RB up in the air. Connor Lloyd is a top option at WR. On defense Brett Bolt and John Minor are solid on the line. Ryan Nichols, Matt Prescott, and Spencer McCombs lead the LBs. Talent in the secondary is needed. The smallest school in the district can compete but still more pieces to the puzzle are needed.
