They return fifteen starters and add a strong 9-1 junior varsity squad to the mix. The Knights 2008 leadership includes George Dunlap RB/LB, Kyle Evans RB/LB, Ben Passafuime QB and Kamren Lowery WR/DB. "We think we have a team that can win the league title again," said Coach Ron Myers. Soquel has stacked up a decent pre-league schedule that should help them toward their goal. |
