Outlook: The return of offensive starters have the Hornets hoping for an improved record in 2008. Musselman (5-10, 185, 4.7) passed for 1,863 yards and 10 TDs last season. Favorite target Zale (6-2, 185, 4.8) returns having caught 48 balls for five TDs in 2007. The Hornets’ rushing attack will include Donnell (5-9, 170, 4.5) who scored five TDs last season.

Also returning are top receivers Montgomery (6-1, 190, 4.7) who scored 11 TDs, and Ussery (6-4, 197, 4.5) who scored 5 TDs, last season. Friedberg (6-1, 205, 4.8) and Shaw (5-10, 165, 4.6) will anchor the defense.

Outlook: Haley (6-0, 185, 4.5) and Garnett (6-0, 190, 4.6) should find plenty of running room behind an experienced offensive line that returns all five starters in Addison White, Ian White, Lawson, Herring and Freeman.
