Outlook: The key to the 2008 Thousand Oaks High School season may be the offensive line. This is because many of the other necessary components for a solid season exist for the Lancers. QB Ian Shultis had a solid season a year ago, as did RB John Lister. The youthful Lancer defense did struggle a bit last year, but look for OLB Ryan Thompson, DT Dereck Jester, corner Curtis Dempster, DE Josh Bounds, ILB Mitchel Korey, and S Matt McQuade to use that experience to give their team a chance at making some noise in the Marmonte League.
