DESERT PINES

Head coach: Dwayne Walker, second season

Returning lettermen: Four

Top athletes: Leon Flintroy (Sr.), Donavin Wright (Sr.), Eric Wilkes (Jr.), Shi-Quan Nettingham (Sr.)

Outlook: The Jaguars return four regional qualifiers in Flintroy (100, 200, long jump), Wright (100, high jump), Wilkes (100, 200) and Nettingham (1,600 and 3,200).

"Nettingham saw significant improvement in his running this fall during cross country and is looking to carry over that improvement onto the track," Walker said. "The sprints will be led by Flintroy and Wilkes."

Walker expects Wright to team with Jon McCoy and Malik Davis on the relay teams.
