OUTLOOK: This team still has the Lehi talent and mentality, but after graduating seven solid players from last year's lineup, they will come in young but with some experience. "I see us competing. I think we have the talent if we can just get clicking. We're going to rely heavily on defense this year," said Warr.

PLEASANT GROVE VIKINGS
