Team Outlook
Burnet  - Coach Bob Shipley (36-5-0) at Burnet and (54-11-0) Overall, returns 27 letterman 6 offensive 3 defensive starters with 22 letterman lost from a (14-1) 3A Div. I State Finalist playoff team. 
Dripping Springs  - Coach Howard Ballard (43-42-0) at Dripping Springs and (43-42-0) Overall, Offense (I / One back), Defense (Multple 4-3), returns 16 letterman 4 offensive 6 defensive starters with 24 letterman lost from a (6-4) team.  Overall Strength (defense), Strengths on offense (offensive line), Strengths on defense (linebacker).  Notes from the Coach: This team will have more quickness than in past years and should compete for a playoff spot barring injuries.  Depth remains a problem especially on the line and questions will have to answered at QB,WR and at RB. 
Lake Travis  - Coach Jeff Dicus (3-7-0) at Lake Travis and (33-31-0) Overall, Offense (I - Back), Defense (Weak Eagle), returns 23 letterman 6 offensive 4 defensive starters with 6 letterman lost from a (3-7) team.  Overall Strength (offense), Strengths on offense (running back), Strengths on defense (linebacker).  Notes from the Coach: This year’s team should be stronger in district providing injuries do not become a problem in non-district games.  Overall strength is better and the kids have a better understanding of what is required to be part of the program.  Quarterback will be a first year starter and will need to assume leadership role with the linebackers on defense.
Marble Falls  - Coach Rhudy Maskew (0-10-0) at Marble Falls and (17-35-0) Overall, returns 25 letterman 6 offensive 5 defensive starters with 23 letterman lost from a (0-10) team. 
New Braunfels Canyon - Coach Les Davis, Offense (Multiple I), Defense (4-3), returns 19 letterman 5 offensive 4 defensive starters with 27 letterman lost from a (10-3) 4A Div. II Quarterfinal playoff team.  Overall Strength (defense), Strengths on offense (running back), Strengths on defense (defensive line, defensive back).  Notes from the Coach: We need to replace 3 linebackers on defense, big shoes to fill.  On offense, we need to find a QB and keep our RB healthy.
New Braunfels  - Coach Rick Rhoades (36-16-0) at New Braunfels and (36-16-0) Overall, Offense (Multiple), Defense (False front), returns 21 letterman 8 offensive 3 defensive starters with 31 letterman lost from a (8-4) 4A Div. I Regional playoff team.
