Dean-Johnson and Vlach together produced over 2000 rushing yards last season. Suarez was the Stars' top tackler with 66 tackles/assists and seven sacks. Coach Mark Camps must fill key spots in secondary and linebacker positions and deal with an overall lack of depth, but he has some good skill positions returning and has a strong offensive and defensive line. "[We] expect to be improved with key players returning from last year's team, [but we] must avoid injuries," wrote Coach Camps.
