VYPE Hot 20 Countdown: No. 20 Parish Episcopal

VYPE High School Sports Magazine brings you the VYPE Hot 20 list of area teams capable of capturing a state football championship in 2008. Today's team is... No. 20 PARISH EPISCOPAL Why they're a team to watch: Few coaches are as good a motivator as Parish's Scott Nady. So factor in that the Panthers made it to the regional finals last year - where they lost to Liberty Christian - and that their starting quarterback and running back are returning and Parish will be a formidable opponent in TAPPS Division II. Quarterback Brant Costilla passed for 1,463 yards and 12 touchdowns and will only get better. Meanwhile, running back Trey Morse is a 5-7 workhorse and all he did last year was rush for 1,746 yards and 24 touchdowns. Parish is a rising program under Nady.
