Notes:
The Volunteers had a great season last year making it to the Quarterfinals upsetting Southlake Carroll along the way. This years team will have to rely on their defense to keep up the tradition that coach Perry has started. Bowie plays a great pre-district schedule with Odessa, DeSoto and Dallas Skyline on the schedule. Expect them to go 8-2 or 9-1 in the regular season and battle Arlington Martin for the district title. Once in the playoffs, another quarterfinal run is not out of the question.

Notes:
The Steers lost a lot of their stars from last years 10-3 Regional playoff team but they drop down to Class 3A. The bad thing is that that drop down into one of 3A’s toughest districts with Abilene Wylie, Brownwood and Snyder. Coach Ritchey has the Steers playing their best ball in a long time. They are coming off the best 2 seasons since 1989 and 1990. Expect the Steers to fight for that last playoff spot but it will be tough. They should finish up the regular season at 5-5 or 6-4 and if they make the playoffs they may get to the Regionals.

2 year winning streak under HC Ritchey after having 5 consecutive losing seasons before he arrived

OL Russell Dobbs
DL Tyler Ryan 91 tackles
DL Kyler Scheriger 39 tackles
DB JR Brian Sides HM All-State 6 INTs 104 tackles

Notes:
The Steers gave Carthage their toughest game last season and came close to winning the state championship. They lost a lot from that team including QB Case McCoy who is now a Texas Longhorn. Look for Fulford on offense and Sides on defense to be leaders. Graham should win the district title and go 7-3 or 8-2 in the regular season and make a trip to the Area or Regional playoffs. They play a tough pre-district schedule with Abilene Wylie, Brownwood and Bridgeport on the schedule. It looks like their bi-district game would be against Brownwood or Snyder so that would be a hard game to advance on.

Notes:
The Raiders are once again have tons of talent even though only 6 starters return from a 12-1 Regional playoff team. This is a very young team but the SOPHs and JRs are some of the best underclassmen in the state. Skyline starts off the season with a game vs. St. Thomas Florida in the Florida vs. Texas Kickoff Classic. Expect them to go 9-1 or 10-0 in the regular season and then at least a run to the Regionals. A couple of good matchups in the playoffs could be against Allen or Coppell.

Notes:
The Mustangs regular season win streak finally came to an end at 78 with an opening game loss to Katy last season. They will get another shot at Katy on opening weekend again this year. North Shore will once again be loaded with talent. OL Flowers on offense and LB Matthews and DB Jones on defense are all D1 recruits. Expect the Mustangs to be a power in Region III. There are some great matchups in the later rounds of the playoffs with a list of possible opponents being Fort Bend Hightower, Pearland, Katy and Katy Cinco Ranch. They should go 8-2 or 9-1 in the regular season and then go to at least the Regionals.

Notes:
The Wildcats shocked the state last season upsetting Muleshoe and Littlfield in the playoffs before finally losing out to Brady in a tough game. They will rely on a very good running game in 2010 and will need more upsets if they are to even make the playoffs. District 1-2A Division I may be the toughest district in all of Class 1A with Bushland, Littlefield and Muleshoe all being top contenders for the title. Expect the Wildcats to go 6-4 or 7-3 in the regular season and fight for that last playoff spot but they will be the underdog.

Notes:
The Lions had a very tough season last year and this one looks to be just as challenging. With head coach Sam Harrell stepping down and only 7 starters coming back it will be very difficult to make it to the playoffs. If they are to have a chance, RB Dove will have to provide the spark. Look for the Lions to go 5-5 or 6-4 in the regular season and fight for that last playoff spot.

DB Joseph Lizcano 7 INTs 87 tackles 3 Punt Returns for TDs

Notes:
The Buffaloes will be challenged in 2010 to keep their 16 year non-losing streak going. DB Lizcano is a talent that keeps fans on the edge of their seats. Expect them to go 6-4 or 7-3 and fight for that 3rd or 4th playoff spot. If they make it to the playoffs, the Area round is as far as they will probably go.

DB Sharard Timmons 73 tackles 4 INTs 12 PBU’s HM All-State
DB Tylan Harris
K Fernando Arellano 14 FGs 37 XP

Notes:
The Wildcats will be a very inexperienced team this year with only 6 starters returning. They will rely on the defense led by DB Timmons early on while QB Owens and RB Chester get the offense started. Coach Owens has this program turned around and they are back to where they were in the mid 1990′s. This year will be a challenge though to get to 9 wins. They are in an easier district with Longview and Marshall moving out though. Expect them to go 6-4 or 7-3 in the regular season, fight for that 3rd or 4th spot in disttict and advance to the Area or Regional playoffs.

History:
3 consecutive 9+ win seasons (only 1 in the previous 11 seasons before Owens)

Returning Lettermen: 17

Returning Starters: Offense: 7 Defense: 5

Key Players:
QB SOPH Cameron Soto
RB Colin Dziuk 1245 yards 23 TDs rushing District Offensive MVP
OL Brady Zunker 46 pancakes, graded 96 percent, no sacks allowed 1st Team All-State
OL/LB Blake Gawlik 2nd Team All-State OL 88 tackles
OL William Pruski
OL Devon Gerzel
OL Andy Sekula

Notes:
The Beavers return 17 lettermen from a 13-1 Quarterfinal team last year. They will be solid on both sides of the ball. Look for RB Dziuk to have a great season running behind a talented offensive line led by two all-staters in Zunker and Gawlik. They also have 5 defensive starters coming back from a unit that shutout every district opponent last year and only gave up 45 points in the entire regular season. Falls City will be one of the top teams in Division II and should finish up the regular season at 9-1 or 10-0 and make a run at the championship. A good matchup may be against Tenaha in the Semifinals.

Kirchhoff has winning seasons in 11 of last 14 years
