Outlook: Silver Valley High School missed the playoffs by one league victory in 2007, but they appear poised to take that final step this fall. Among the reasons for the optimism are 16 returning starters. QB Chris Bailey, RBs Kerry Sloan and Mike Medeguari, and WR Denzel Crump will lead an experienced spread offense. Defensive leaders DT Joseph Pitre, LB Adrian Rincon, and FS Traevon Beddard will lead a unit that almost certainly should improve on the 26.3 points per game they allowed last year. "We will be improved, as we have the deepest team in history returning," declared Coach Andy Campbell.
