Outstanding players include Trent Eskew DE/TE, Angelo Ornales IB/FB, Daniel Swainton DL/OT, Austin Reifel C, Chris Neal DB/RB, Brady Burk DL/OG, Ryan Patterson WR, Jack Urner WR and Colton Schmidt K/P. The Patriots have lost almost all their skill players and an outstanding defense, but coach Mills said, "This group knows what TEAM is about. In past years, this group has won a lot of games at the lower levels." The school enrollment is down From 2800+ in 2005 to 1900+ in 2008-09. "This group has been trying to win the Southeast Yosemite League Championship since 2004, along with a Division I Valley Champion," concluded Coach Mills.
