Mike Says:The Kiowas followed a Freshman to one of their best season ever last year. QB Lile is going to be fun to watch over the next couple of years. He is set to break some all-time passing records. Others like WR DeSantiago will need to step up because the district is tough with Wellington and Wheeler in it. Expect Lile and the Kiowas to have another outstanding year ending the regular season with an 8-2 or 9-1 record and then go 2 or 3 rounds into the playoffs.

Chris Says: Booker was a lot of fun to watch last season and a lot of the reason was the standout play of Hunter Lile. Coach Henton's team has a lot more going for it than a young star at QB. The entire defensive line brings back a lot of experience and will set the offense up with good field position. The Kiowas will make the playoffs and could last 3 or 4 rounds.
