What to be expecting: If the coaches in the Mission Division are to be thought, the Farmers will be carrying out much more celebrating in 2022 than they did past yr. Sixteen starters return from very last year’s crew, with one of the best staying limited finish Jesse Dunning. He is a existence as a receiver but can line up at quarterback too and his coach mentioned, “His contributions will be noticed all in excess of the field.” Throwing him the ball as the commencing QB is junior Kennedy Braziel, and blocking for each will be lineman Jeremiah Caldwell.

Coach: Paul Perenon

What to expect: The Monarchs’ season might have looked a lot distinct if a couple of bounces experienced gone their way in the course of their four-match skid throughout midseason final 12 months. They dropped two of those online games by one score. This year’s workforce would most likely gain those game titles, with 4 starters on the line and 8 defensive starters returning. Andres Viernes is an all-Bay Spot News Group performer at linebacker and offensive line, and defensive again Jacob Gastrock is so great at locking down receivers his mentor stated “literally no a person attempts to throw on him.” Linebacker Daniel Batres is also a tall focus on as a 6- receiver, but he is dwarfed by William Ohai, a 6-5 and 350-pound offensive deal with. Kaz Gooden is one more senior whom his mentor known as “one of the leading defensive linemen in the East Bay” following he place up 14 quarterback hurries previous year.

No. 3 MOREAU CATHOLIC

Mentor: Keith Small

What to be expecting: Like league favorite Hayward, Moreau Catholic is an additional refugee from the tougher Foothill Division. If the coaches are to be thought, a further winless time is not most likely for the Mariners, who have some amazing playmakers. It all starts with halfback Dean Taylor Chapman, whom Small — previously of Encinal — mentioned is “an explosive playmaker that will bring about mismatches.” On the other aspect of the ball is the “backbone of our defense” Jesse Charles at linebacker. Khiron Mosi will be requested to make performs with the ball in his arms, whilst also retaining the other team’s best receiver from likely off as a DB. Luca Oca started off as the JV quarterback and is anticipated to choose snaps with the varsity, and 6-2 senior Robert Morgan is a first-year participant at wideout who might shock with his pace.

On the extra experienced aspect of the crew, junior Drew Henderson will use his large arm to throw to Jackson Harris, another person his mentor explained as a “jump ball machine” who will perform faculty football.

No. 5 WASHINGTON-FREMONT

Mentor: Fernando Sotelo

2021 history: 5-5

What to hope: Which Washington crew will clearly show up this time? The Huskies who gained various near video games en route to a 5-1 start out?
