Outlook: The Bobcats continue to be young, but many players gained valuable experience last season, and sixteen starters are back for coach John Torres this year. George Duenes returns at RB and will be counted on for a lot of work after averaging more than eight yards per carry last year. Blocking Back Jose Galvan will lead the way for Duenes with returning linemen Leo Ybrarra and Jonathan DeHoyos opening up holes. On defense, there is some strength at LB with Ramon Aguilar and Casey Benavidez back. Felix Galvan will lead the defensive front. Having only lost seven players off of last year's roster, the program is going in the right direction.
