The hardest adjustments for Pampa will be to overcome the loss of 30 seniors and the ability for the kids to adjust to a new system and new coach. | | Amarillo Caprock Longhorns (Orange, White) - Head Coach Gerald Nipp - (2-24-0) @ Amarillo Caprock and (2-24-0) Overall, Offense (NA), Defense (NA), returns 18 letterman 7 offensive 3 defensive starters with 26 letterman lost from a (2-8) team.
