Outlook: Defending Valley Mission League champ San Fernando has reason to be optimistic about the 2008 season, as pretty much all of the top skill position players return. QB Rashaad Reynolds has interest from a number of D-I programs -- probably as an athlete. Leading receivers from a year ago were Leon Jones and Stacey Richards. The Tigers will be relying on their team speed to make a deep run into the Los Angeles City Section playoffs.
