Team Outlook
El Paso Franklin - Coach Tony Grijalva (35-10-0) at El Paso Franklin and (35-10-0) Overall, Offense (One Back), Defense (4-3), returns 17 letterman 3 offensive 6 defensive starters with 15 letterman lost from a (8-3) Div. II Bi-district playoff team.  Overall Strength (defense), Strengths on offense (quarterback), Strengths on defense (defensive line and linebacker).  Notes from the Coach:  bright spot is 6 returning starters on defense, must replace offensive line, quarterback and receivers return with experience, running back still a question, and the defense should keep us in ball games.
