Outlook: Coach Mike Dimino states that his Del Campo Cougars will be young and in a rebuilding year. They had four good years with 3 titles and 28 wins in the last three seasons. The Cougars talent centers on CJ Castro RB and Ryan Dimino RB, Dakota Martin G, and Steve Marley C. Castro and Dimino, although not 2007 starters, saw lots of game time action. As of this writing, the cougars had not settled on their primary quarterback but Coach mentioned Conrad Golly a candidate. New talent will be replacing many of the skill and linemen positions lost from last year's graduation. Coach Dimino sees Casa Roble and Rio Americano as the Cougars main challenge for 2008. He adds "This is a rebuilding season, tradition hopefully to help [us]."
