Outlook: After a four-win season last year, coach Tod Clark's Indians are really young this season. Two-thirds of the varsity roster is gone, and the offense will depend on a QB switching positions. Danny Saenz played primarily in the secondary last season, but he will run the offense this year. Top RB Joe Perez is back after a good season in 2007. Michael Armendariz is the top returning receiver. The defense has a few key guys back, but it is a work in progress. It appears to be a rebuilding season with a learn-for-the-future-type campaign.
