Team: Solanco

Class: 5A

Head Coach: Anthony Cox (17-7)

The Golden Mules will try to follow up their most successful season in school history after going 11-2, claiming a share of the Section Two title and advancing to the District 3 Class AAA semifinals.

In order to do that however, Solanco will have to quickly reload at some key positions. Quarterback Noah MCCardell and fullback Robbie Hassel accounted for over 3300 yards in offense last season with 48 total touchdowns.

Third-year head coach Anthony Cox has installed a hard-nosed, physical attitude in the Solanco program so don’t expect the Mules to rest on their laurels in 2016.
