Outlook: San Marino High School last made the playoffs in 2003, but that streak may end in 2008. A 7-3 JV team joins 11 returning starters to make the Titan playoff case. QB Steven Wright returns to lead an offense that averaged 25.3 points per game last year. The rest of the offensive skill positions don't worry Coach D. R. Moreland as much as the offensive line, where the majority of the graduation hits took place. Same on the D-line. If the Titans can reasonably recover from those losses, then they may be able to capture that one extra victory that separated them from the playoffs.
