Defensive MVP
DL Marquise Anderson, Sr., Steele
DL Cory Gould, Sr., New Braunfels

Who’s In:
1. Converse Judson * – Eight returning all-district players put Judson at the top of our projections. This looks like the strongest Rocket team in a few years. 2. Cibolo Steele – The Knights move into 5A after a successful inauguration in 4A. Steele could emerge as a threat in both district and region.
3. New Braunfels – The Unicorns advanced to the state semis out of 26-5A last year. They should contend for a top spot this year despite graduation hits.
Fighting It Out: 4. SA Wagner * – defensive foundation key to another postseason. 5. San Marcos – two sub par seasons after nine straight in playoffs. Work to Do: |

Offensive MVP
QB Trevor Knight, Jr., SA Reagan
Defensive MVP
DL Quinton Bradley, Sr., SA Roosevelt |
Who’s In:
1. SA Reagan – The Rattlers won the ’09 crown with a young team and should be improved this season. Junior QB Trevor Knight is one of the area’s top players. 2. SA Madison * – The Mavs didn’t meet expectations last year, but have a chance to atone with the return of senior RB Aaron Green. Madison has qualified for the playoffs in eight of their last nine seasons.
Fighting It Out: 3. SA MacArthur – very young in ’09, ready to take the next step. 4. SA Roosevelt * – Roughriders never lack talent, will be in the mix. 5. SA Johnson – new school improved from 1-9 to 5-5 last year. 6. SA Churchill – good enough defensively to make the top sweat. Work to Do: |

Five returning first team All-District picks make the Broncos an early district favorite. 2. SA Clark – The Cougars emerged as San Antonio’s top program in the last two seasons, but have some rebuilding to do under new leadership this year. 3.

SA Holmes – last winning season came in 2000. |

Who’s In:
1. SA Southwest * – The Dragons dominated 29-5A, and enter 2010 as the favorites in the new 28-5A. 13 starters return for the D1 area finalists. 2. CC Carroll – Four returning first team all-district players should help put the Tigers in the hunt for the district title. A prospect improved dramatically due to realignment.
3. SA East Central * – East Central tries for its fourth consecutive trip to the playoffs. Must replace two key players in RB Chris Johnson and DL Torrea Peterson. 4. CC King – Realignment was very favorable for the Mustangs’ chances for playoff football in ’10. Last playoff appearance was in 2003. |
