Outlook: One of the heavyweights in the Southern Section Central Division will be Los Osos High School. One of the reasons for this will be QB Richard Brehaut (UCLA commit), one of the top at the position on the west coast. It won't be a one horse show, as RB Arby Fields has a few D-I offers, as well. Throw in OL Matt Shinn (also drawing D-I interest) and WR Lance Brown and you have the potential for one potent offense. Defensively, LBs Jesse Gonzales and Mitch Rosnagle, DBs Ernie Esparza and Devin Gage, and DL Scott Nastase are set to try and match the impressive 17.7 points per game they yielded last season. If they do, then the Grizzlies will not likely be stopping at a Baseline title, but also in the thick of the hunt for the Central Division title.
