Outlook: Although it doesn't always prove to be the best indicator, the fact that this year's varsity Steele Canyon football team was a combined 15-4, a JV squad suggests that it could be a successful year. In order to return to the playoffs, though, it appears they'll have to break in a new QB. Whoever gets that job will have 2nd-team All-Leaguers Jabari Robinson (C) and Ben Kauffman (T) to protect him. The defense will be led by LBs Joe Morgan (also 2nd-team All-League) and Josiah Smith.
