Mike Says: The Trojans are always a tough out in the playoffs. This year will be no different. They will be very tough in the trenches. They bring back 12 starters with 11 of them being all-district last year. This years schedule is exciting as always with 2 out of state opponents. Look for them to go 8-2 or 9-1 in the regular season and win the district title again. Once in the playoffs it looks like another showdown with Southlake Carroll for the Regional title.

Chris Says: Euless Trinity never fails to put a solid (as in those linemen) team on the field and 2013 is going to be another year of hard fought trench warfare. As usual , the won't have much trouble with their District 6-5A opponents. Expect another district title and another strong playoff run. As usual, they season will only end when someone with a stronger defense can slow down their massive line. That won't happen until the Regionals or Semifinals.
