Outlook: Undeniably, one of the most successful medium-sized schools in the Southern Section in recent years has been Charter Oak High School. The Chargers have won or shared 6 of the last 7 Miramonte League titles. However, due to the fact that they graduated 36 seniors last year and only return 7 starters, it will be difficult to maintain that same level in 2008. Luckily, one of those returners will be QB Chris Allen. Upcoming junior RB Adam Muema will be a good compliment to Allen. Coach Lou Farrar will be counting on defensive linemen Evan Williams and Tyler Perri to lead a very young defense.
