Outlook: Don Lugo High School has made the playoffs each of the last 4 seasons, but they have never really developed into a dangerous contender. It appears as though that playoff streak may end in 2008 as only 6 starters return, not to mention the program had to replace the coaching staffs on all levels this offseason. The program is not without bright spots. New head coach Rick Martin likes what he sees in terms of team unity, and the incoming JV team finished 6-4 last year. A pair of receivers from that team, Jason Campos and Ivan Gama may be able to quickly contribute.
