Notes:
* Have not made the playoffs since 2005

Mike Says: The Hornets bring back 15 starters from last years team. They will need that experience to try and turn things around. Look for them to go 3-7 or 4-6 in the regular season and come in 6th or 7th in the district.

Chris Says: Azle is in a good position to make the playoffs with so many returning starters and a district that drops off rather sharply after Wichita Falls Rider and Denton Guyer. There is a good chance you will see the Hornets in postseason.
