Outlook: Coach Allan Sepkowitz has ten starters back with about half of his roster from last season returning. Edwin Cole played a lot at RB last season and will be the starter this year. He'll run behind a veteran line that includes Anthony Torres, Matthew Gutierez, and Luis Morales. Newcomer Jacob Christman should start at QB with Michael Swift back as a major talent receiving. Sophomore Anthony Scallion is also a good up-and-coming receiver. The defense should be solid in the trenches, and Troy Knight and Dixon Lynn lead a good secondary. Talent is in the fold, and a top three finish in the district seems probable.
