Notes:
* 5 year winning streak
* Lost in Bi-District last year after going to the championship in 2011 and the Semifinals in 2010...the loss was to 13-1 Gatesville though

Mike Says: The Indians had another great season last year before falling to a very good team in Bi-District. This year may be a little tougher on the Indians. They will make the playoffs but it will be a struggle with a 6-4 or 7-3 record. After that its one or two rounds in the playoffs.

Chris Says: Alvarado had a really good season going until the wheels started to fall off late in the year. The Indians dropped three of their last four game to some really good teams. They bring back a solid number of starters on defense and are pretty well starting over on offense. With only 5 strong wins last year and so few returners, they will struggle to win more than 6 this time around. If they can manage that, expect another short playoff run.

Last Years Record: Overall 7-4 District 2-2
