Team Outlook
Arlington Seguin - Coach Ricky Albus, Offense (I-Multiple), Defense (4-2-5), Overall Strength (defense), Strengths on offense (running back, offensive line), Strengths on defense (defensive line).  Notes from the Coach: This will be our first season of varsity football.  We have played a "maverick" schedule for the past two seasons.  We look forward to the opportunity that lies ahead.  Our projected numbers were much lower that anticipated which placed us in the 4A classification.  We believe that district 7-4A will be a tough challenge for our first year program and that it will provide a much needed measuring stick to see where we are as a team.
Azle - Coach Gary Rushing (27-24-0) at Azle and (38-51-2) Overall, returns 13 letterman 5 offensive 5 defensive starters with 27 letterman lost from a (5-5) team. 
Fort Worth Carter-Riverside - Coach Jim Jeffries, Offense (Multiple), Defense (50), returns 14 letterman 8 offensive 8 defensive starters with 6 letterman lost from a (0-10) team.  Strengths - (experience, depth at skill positions), Weakness - (Depth at interior positions).  Notes from the Coach: The team will be stronger this year than in years past.  The players have become stronger and quicker during the off-season.  The numbers are up in the program from previous years.  We have many returning starters on offense and defense and the athletes will have to compete for positions.  We expect some of the underclassmen to step up and contribute.
Fort Worth Diamond Hill-Jarvis - Coach Heath Brown (9-31-0) at Fort Worth Diamond Hill-Jarvis and (9-31-0) Overall, Offense (Wing), Defense (50), returns 12 letterman 6 offensive 6 defensive starters with 4 letterman lost from a (1-9) team.  Overall Strength (defense), Strengths on offense (receiver, offensive line), Strengths on defense (linebacker, defensive back).  Notes from the Coach: We are still young, but will have a better offensive line and a much more mature team.
