BEATTY

Head coach: Steven Sullivan, fifth season (36-33 career at Beatty)

2017-18 record: 6-8 (3-6 1A Southern/tied seventh)

Returning lettermen (starters): Five (three)

Top players: Alan Sandoval (Sr.), Jacob Henry (Sr.), Geo Maldonado (Sr.), Jorge Leon (Jr.), Fabian Perez (Jr.)

Outlook: The Hornets return five lettermen from a squad that missed out on a playoff berth last year.
