League Defensive Player of the Year Alex Rojas ILB, League MVP Jose Mendez RB/OLB and All-league Shan Sanghera OL/DT will lead the Redcats in a year of wide improvement. Most of last year's defense, who allowed only 110 points in thirteen games, is back again this year. Many of the offense Redcats are back. They averaged nearly 42 points per game last year. The offensive line is untested, providing the unknown factor for the otherwise solid team.
