That being said, those who comprised last year's varsity roster must make it happen this season because the JV squad mustered only one win in ten tries last season. Donovan Foster is back as the signal caller, and Kevin Smith returns as a top ball carrier. The defense returns most of the impact players from last season, including Jonathan Fowler at LB and John Meyer at Tackle. The school is dropping in classification and should be slightly improved.
