The offensive line should be improved with experience gained last year, and the trio of Duke Hawkins, Anthony Webb, and Kendrick Perkins providing depth and different skill sets. At 6'5", receiver Jimmy Randle is a nice target. On defense, Devon Sutherland leads the secondary and Ian Ogando anchors the line. Edward Gonzales and Ray Rodriguez should chip in at LB. A top half of the district finish is possible.
