Outlook: Ramona High School will be an interesting case in 2008. On the one hand, Coach Damon Baldwin said he believed his team was the youngest in the San Diego Section last year, yet still managed a 6-4 record and a berth into the D-III playoffs. On the other hand, with the newly restructured Valley League, the Bulldogs will be facing 3 teams that won SDS titles in '07, including one that took home a CIF State Bowl title (Oceanside). Still, Coach Baldwin has high hopes for his team and expects to challenge for the D-III title this fall.
