The Hawks have 15 starters returning, including RB Derek Browning, who was injured last year (Coach Bruce Ingalls describes him as a 3-year starter). They will have to replace the QB that paced them to nearly 30 points per game during league play, but a 5-3 JV team will be moving up to provide more depth. Expect the Hawks to once again be a frontrunner in the Pacific Coast League.
