the Orange League title last season. Di Palma expects this season’s squad to keep the good times going. Stocks and Shine were versatile all-league performers as juniors, and Di Palma

believes they will be even better this season. Stocks is bigger and stronger, which is bad news for the rest of the league. Shine rushed for 620 yards and averaged 8.2 yards per carry, and

his yardage total might be considerably larger with his expected increased workload. Warden is strong-armed and intelligent, qualities Di Palma insists of in his quarterbacks. Biro, Kellum,

Nyquist and Williams also might get some time in the offensive backfield. Di Palma is intrigued by Pene’s potential. SCHEDULE September 8 vs. Kennedy at Glover Stadium; 14 vs. Katella at
