Capuchino

· Ky Hollenbeck, 5-9, 190, sr. DE - all-county player last season; a CCS wrestler, offensive linemen have a hard time getting their hands on him.

· Suave Piutau 6-1, 245, sr. MLB - probably Cap's best athlete.

Carlmont

· Jaime Nava, 5-9, 185, sr. LB - robust MLB never stops moving, totaled 10 tackles for losses in '03.

El Camino

· Dupre Miller sr. QB - unenviable position of trying to replace graduated Calvin Roberts.

· Joseph Herrera 6-4, 325 jr. OL/DL - "Big Show" started as a sophomore last season; just one of two linemen to weigh over 300 pounds.

Half Moon Bay

Jefferson

· Juan Perez, jr. QB - In his first year as varsity quarterback.

· Ako Poti, 6-4, 295, sr. OL/DL - anchor on both offensive and defensive lines; probably Jefferson's most effective lineman.

Menlo-Atherton

· Clark Hagman, sr. QB - it's now his team after transferring from Bellarmine before the start of last season.

Menlo School

· Charlie Hazlehurst 6-3, 198, sr. QB - one head of the Knights' two-headed QB system; could make noise as a WR and a DB.

· David Havoka, 6-2, 290 jr. OL/DL - will be in charge of paving the way for the Bearcats. Team captain and one of the hardest workers on the team.

Sequoia

· Wade Reynoso jr. QB - an outstanding athlete, Reynoso will need that athletic ability to move from linebacker to running the offense as the quarterback.

· Kyle Perry sr. RB - should be the Cherokees' go-to guy when they need a big play.

Serra

· Will Powers 6-4, 230, sr. TE/DE - one of the most sought-after defensive ends in the country; just about every major university has come calling.

· Marco Navarro 6-0, 205 sr. OL/DL - started as a sophomore but missed all of 2003 with an injury. Serra coach Patrick Walsh believes if Navarro was playing last year, the Padres may have won a championship.

· Eric Moore, 6-3, 210 jr. QB - has size to be big-time QB but is playing the position for the first time.

Terra Nova

· Andrew Kegel, jr. WR - started at wide receiver and defensive back last season as a sophomore, very unusual in Terra Nova's junior- and senior-heavy system.

· Joe Cadena, 6-0, 260, jr. OL/DL - another young oddity for the Tigers; saw significant time last season as a sophomore.

Woodside

· Dominic Duncan-Cruz, 6-4, 225, sr. WR/DL - molded like Terrell Owens: big, strong, quick and explosive.

· Tyreece Jacks, sr. TB - possesses speed to burn and likely to play at the next level.
