Only 7 starters return, a scarce 2 on D. The Vikings do have a few standouts, such as DB Terrill Jones (a 1st team All-Rio Hondo League selection), WR/DB Trayvon Wysinger, and OL/DL Cory Alexander. Another key figure missing from last year is their Head Coach. Coach Gary Parks takes over the leadership of the program, along with David Mendoza as the new defensive coordinator. It does not appear that Blair will be quite as good as last year, but there is a reasonable chance at another playoff spot and, if they catch a break or two, another league title.
