On defense, nine starters are back with LBs George Gutierrez and Carlos Gonzalez leading the way and Meliton Trejo and Isaac Patterson key members of the secondary. On the defensive line, Sergio Quintanilla and Anthony Grove are solid. The defense is going to have to be very good while the offense finds itself. The quicker the offense, develops the better the season can be.
