2012 LSG Texas High School Football Team Preview — Apple Springs Eagles

Team: Apple Springs Eagles (16-6Man Division I)

1st varstity season: 1980

Enrollment: 75 -- 2nd largest in the district out of 4 schools

Coach: Cody Moree

Coaches Comments: We look better. We were extremely young last year. All but one are back. If we stay healthy, we should be able to play a while. District Outlook: Oakwood is the dominate favorite. They deserve it. They went two rounds last year and only lost one senior. Apple Springs plans to contend for the district title. High Island is new to six-man but not to football. I've not seen them but my understanding is they have some good skill players. Chester will compete hard. Coach Holton does a great job. The only problem for them is just a sheer lack of numbers.

Returning Lettermen: 16

Returning Starters: Offense: 6 Defense: 5

Key Players:
* Mason Alsbrooks: Center 2011 All Region: Sr.
* Dylan Coleman: Quarterback, 15 TD,s JR
* Josh Suggs: 2100 yards, 19 TD's Jr
* Chance Simmons: Lineman SR
* Dakota Lankford: TE SR
* Heath Jerrett: WR, Jr
* Dillon Pate: WR/DB Jr
* Chaz Mercer: DE, Sr
* Jordan Freeman: WR/DB Soph

Notes:

Mike Says: The Eagles will need another big season from RB Suggs to stay in the fight for the district title with Oakwood.

Chris Says: Apple Springs should be in the playoff picture. Their experience will translate into a 6 or 7 win season
