5 P.M. — Digital Sports Football Preview (Langley)

DigitalSports continues their periscope previews from around the 30-team Northern Region. Next up are the Langley Saxons.

The bad news? The schools moves up to Division 6, and won't stand a chance to get in the playoffs. By beating up on most of the smaller Liberty District team (Stone Bridge will smash them), the Saxons won't acquire enough power points to get anywhere.

The good news? It returns its entire offensive backfield, including senior quarterback Danny Pritchett and senior running backs Derek Eklund and David Helmer. The good news is that stud 6-foot-5, 250 pound defensive end Scott Jones and 6-foot-4, 260-pound offensive lineman Garrett Moore both return. Recruiters salivate over height. Both could be D-I signees.

Telling quote, from coach John Howerton, "This school has always been known for tennis and golf and sports like that." Well, he is telling the truth.

*Note: The second full day of Metro Mayhem is in the books. Check back tomorrow at 7 a.m.
