Returning starters: 4 offensive, 8 defensive

Key players: DL Preston Begley (6-1, 210), QB Gavin Chambers (5-11, 180), OL Mason Chambers (6-1, 215), RB/LB Hayden Maynor (5-10, 190), WR/DB Garrett Richardson (5-10, 175).

Team strengths: Gavin Chambers is a two-year starter at quarterback, and the Trojans don’t get enough recognition for the speed they have at the skill positions. Not only is there experience returning, but it’s talented experience.
