Outlook: Coach George Zuber observed that this season would see a step down in overall talent and experience from last season. "It's going to be a tough road," said Zuber. After having one of best seasons in recent Logan history, the Colts return only 5 starters from last year. Even though there is a limited varsity experience, Coach Zuber noted that the team has better leadership, and players have two years working the new system. Returning talent Joe Mestre G/MLB, Brandon Arnold WR/CB, Kyle Lopez RB/LB, Toni Pole OT/DT and Troy Nixon RB/DB will provide the leadership for the small, relatively inexperienced team.
