QB Brodie Rogers 6-3, 220, Jr. Altus Bulldogs
The Bulldogs could find themselves splitting time at quarterback with Brodie Rogers playing QB and possibly tight end. Either way, when Rogers has the ball in his hands, he is dangerous.
RB Willie Cramerer 6-1, 210, Jr. Frederick Bombers
One tough back to stop when he gets moving, Willie Cramerer had 120 carries last season for 1,115 yards and 22 touchdowns. His production is crucial to the success of the Bomber offense.
WR Ashton Pride 5-8, 185, Sr. Mangum Tigers
One of several targets in the Mangum offense, Ashton Pride stands out with 893 yards receiving and 17 total touchdowns. He accounted for 1,672 all-purpose yards as a junior and could have an even better season as a senior.
OL Kolton Duncan 6-3, 265, Sr. Frederick Bombers
Exactly what you want in someone who moves people off the line of scrimmage, Kolton Duncan simply gets the job done. He can play the finesse game and pass block or be the road grader Frederick needs.
DL Jaxon Allison 6-5, 265, Jr. Hobart Bearcats
Known for his ability to block on offense, Jaxon Allison’s play will be felt on defense this season. Allison has the size and strength to make life difficult on both sides of the ball. Hasn’t missed a workout day in two summers.
LB Kelby Bates 5-10, 215, Jr. Altus Bulldogs
With a great sophomore campaign, the Bulldog nation is excited to see what Kelby Bates can accomplish this season. With his size and quickness to the ball, Kelby will make it difficult on any running back to have big gains against Altus.
DB Antonio Balderas 5-8, 145, Jr. Snyder Cyclones
Little may be known about Antonio Balderas from Snyder, but our bet is that will change this season. Balderas will start at safety for the Cyclones where his speed and ability to close on the ball will be front and center.
