Outlook: Eagle coach Greg Poynor returns twelve starters after finishing last season 6-4. The offense should revolve around returning RB Coby Torres who averaged an incredible nine yards per carry last season. Sophomore Caden Whitley steps in at QB after playing sparingly last season in a backup role. Jamar Anderson and Brett Poynor are key WRs. The squad has some veteran linemen too. The defense needs playmakers to step up, but a nucleus is in place for a good season.
