GODDARD ROCKETS
Head Coach: Chris White
2019 Record: 9-3 overall, 2-1 district
2019 Playoffs: Semifinals (Lost to Los Lunas 35-14); Quarterfinals (Beat Piedra Vista 20-10)
Key Returning Players: Larry Luna (2021/OL); Sammy Zaragoza (2021/RB); Nate Stone (2021WR-FS)
Review: The Goddard Rockets are getting back to their standard deep playoff appearances. After a few years of having to rebuild or get back to the tradition that has won many games. They take a hit losing the likes of Robert Aragon (QB) and a handful of all-state players in Hunter Beene (LB), Connor Villalpando (LB), Kaston Ramage (LB) and Anthony Panto (OL). They reached the semifinals last season and went on to win 9-games.
Preview: The big question that sticks out with be replacing those three all-state LB group. The good news; the Rockets return Sammy Zaragoza (RB) and division I prospect Larry Luna (OL). The Rockets will need to replace some holes left behind from graduation but things appear to be settling back into place for the Rockets program.
